Moving to Richmond Va

BadNewsRef is from the Hampton Roads area and will be along shortly (he's probably working and didn't have his games postponed lie those of us to the north, because the weather people thought it MIGHT snow). I'm sure he knows his way around that are and can help.

LCUBED you there? Help a fellow official out!

Thanks fellas. Appreciate all the help I can get. I've emailed people from central and can't seem to get an email back.

My hometown. I'm in the DC area now but know some people.

Pretty sure others may have better info but feel free to p.m. me.

Arghh! I hear 'ya! Happened to us in south Hampton Roads as well. All evening events got cancelled 24 hours prior, and then our 1-3 inches turned into maybe 0.75 inches, and nothing accumulated on the roads. Complete overreaction, as usual.

Having grown up in Wisconsin, the fact that the mere threat of light snow here causes municipal chaos just boggles my mind.

Very frustrating. At least the game I lost was rescheduled on a day I had open.

At least you got SOME snow. We had our games postponed and got zip, zilch, zero, nada, the null set of snow! Not a flake!!

Rescheduled on the holiday on Monday!

The president of the laboratory that I work for decided to remove the 1/2 day paid holiday on Good Friday from our calendar and add a full paid holiday on President's Day (a day that was previously not a paid holiday). Sounds like a good deal, getting a full paid holiday, and giving up a 1/2 paid holiday? That was until he discovered that many of our clients do not have a President's Day holiday and will still be sending in water, and soil, samples to be analyzed. Now I'm working Monday and we haven't heard about Good Friday yet.

Anybody here old enough to remember, as school kids, when we had separate days off for Lincoln's Birthday, and Washington's Birthday? And these holidays were actually celebrated on their birthdays, February 12, and February, 22, and not celebrated on the nearest Monday? How about it Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.? Didn't you help Abraham Lincoln split logs?
