There were guys fishing on the river. Either they are very bored at home, or dedicated hard core fisherman...

Greg, what marina is that? I'm trying to place it by the bridge in the background

Cableguy Greg · February 2015

Handymans342 · February 2015

Ray, look outside and tell me if its snowing. LOL

raybo3 · February 2015

Steve this really blows. Its snowing pretty good after dropping about a foot over night. Supposed to snow till about 1-2am then another storm coming Thursday night into Friday............... No place to put it. Not fun.....

Handymans342 · February 2015

I feel your pain. Nothing you can do.

Britinusa · February 2015

Greg i was way off i was thinking McKeesport!
It felt like spring here on sat some birds were singing, now the temp has dropped back down

Dream_Inn · February 2015

Yeah, Sunday hit 60 degrees here, sure was nice, but cold is coming this weekend.

raybo3 · February 2015

Update: 7 feet of snow in 14 days. Still snowing (till about 1am) and another good size storm coming Thursday into Friday.......... Holy $hit Batman......lol

Dream_Inn · February 2015

Raybo, don't worry, for sure by June it will definitely be gone!! I've been watching on the news all the issues with public transportation up there. You sure have your work cut out for ya! Hang in there bud. You'll be laughing about it over drinks on the boat soon enough! We've gotten lucky here, that fine line between snow to rain to ice has been here, so we get a mix of stuff, but it melts in a day or so.

raybo3 · February 2015

Hey Dream your so right about public transportation. They shut down service at 7pm last night and the public is in an uproar. On my line the trains are 35 years old with over 2 million miles on them. Parts are a major problem. The system and the city cannot handle this kind of weather. I have been working so many hours lately that I lose track of what day it is. Money is good but blood money.......

Handymans342 · February 2015

They force you to work Ray?

raybo3 · February 2015

Yes pretty much when they call an emergency........... I am also the union rep so I like being here just to keep an eye on things.

pepmyster · February 2015

Ray, You're a man they can count on. Keep up the great work ethics!

Britinusa · February 2015

Man i have a real problem getting all my employees to come to work, they call off any chance they get, different work ethic with the younger work force.

Handymans342 · February 2015

Ray, keep an eye on those union slackers!

luckydog · February 2015

Britinusa, That is the truth I have the same problem with some of my employees, It doesn't matter how well there payed, work ethic have definitely changed

Handymans342 · February 2015

The steel workers have shut down a lot of refineries already.

raybo3 · February 2015

Thanks for the kind word guy's except you handyman. You must be the "real" life of the party.....

Handymans342 · February 2015

More snow coming

MarkB · February 2015

I love snow skiing. I hate snow right now, that's how bad it is.

raybo3 · February 2015

Another freaking 18" of the white $hit coming Saturday..............WTF

rowboat212 · February 2015

All that time in the house with nothing else to do, and Summer hasn't come yet.... man.. gotta break it to you.. it's time to call in for reinforcements.. (oh NO I didn't) yes I did..

raybo3 · February 2015

In the house?????? Man I have been pretty much working around the clock. Google MBTA and see what we are going through........

Handymans342 · February 2015

We may get an inch Monday night. HAHAHAHAHAHHAAH

luckydog · February 2015

OK Ray I googled it

MBTA under fire, commuters frustrated with service

MBTA reports improvements, passengers see widespread delays

Widespread MBTA delays with minor improvements

(MyFoxBoston.com) -- Boston's public transportation system is under fire. Records amount of snow have knocked the MBTA out of service, meaning daily schedule changes and delays.

As of Friday morning, the bus shuttle had been shortened. Red Line train service was available between North Quincy and Alewife as service between North Quincy and Braintree remained suspended. Buses replaced trains between Braintree and North Quincy. Customers were also asked to consider using the commuter rail trains that make stops at Braintree and Quincy Center.

An MBTA worker at Quincy Center saw first hand how angry people are as she told people they would now have to take shuttle buses to North Quincy, where they would need to transfer to the subway.

MBTA General Manager Beverly Scott had said she was been trying to roll with the punches from this non-stop snow but then suddenly quit this week. An emergency Massachusetts Department on Transportation Board of Directors meeting is scheduled to meet on Friday to discuss a personnel matter. Mass. DOT oversees the MBTA.

Scott announced she will be staying on until April. It's unclear if Friday's emergency meeting will shed any more information on her departure.
