The snow started around 4am Monday morning and ended around 9am Monday morning. Snow flurries and blowing snow continued throughout the day. Wind gust were up to 40 mph with wind chills below zero. It looks like it will start to warm up this weekend, so that will be a nice change. We plowed all of our businesses in the morning hours and finished up all of our town homes by late afternoon. Everything went very well and we didn't receive any complaints. Good job guys!

We salted a few places and that was pretty much it. The sun came out and melted all the snow down to the pavement.

This storm was a pretty big impact on the metro area from 3-4-13 to 3-6-13. This wasn't what I really wanted to deal with right before my surgery. I had inguinal surgery done the day after this storm. I have been recovering from it the last week or so and didn't really get a chance to post this until now. As far as I can remember, everything went really well during that snow storm. We had a little snow today and we were able to mainly salt the parking lots and what did fall melted pretty quick with the warm temps. Its hard to believe it was in the 70-80s last year at this time and we started our cleanups the last week of March. That doesn't look to be the case this year.
