Tried to do estimates today.

As you can tell from the below pic of my first stop, it didn't work out too well.

Hey, this is a big country! It depends on where you are at. In Michigan anyway, if you are anywhere near the Lake Michigan coast, you have a lot of snow. The wind blowing over the warm lake waters picks up moisture and then drops it as snow for the first 30 to 60 miles from the shore. We can get a foot of snow near the lake and nothing 40 miles away. It has just been too cold to work for the last 6 weeks and you can't do it safely anyway. Brrr..

Yeah, they were mike but it's all thawed out now and the high for Friday is 64 degrees. :laugh:

I didn't even bother to try. Heck, I have 7-8 jobs on hold already.

That little bit of snow wasn't a big deal but there is like a half inch of solid ice underneath it. :huh:

First snow we've had in Central Alabama in about 5 years. The ice came first thus all the problems. People stranded in their cars for hours and hours. They had the National Guard out rescuing folks. :side:

Somebody is really hungry! There was a time I would be out there is this crap but not any more. The crew is on unemployment and I'm lining up repair work for when the weather finally breaks. We'll be scrambling soon enough.

You are not lying there! It has been cold and snowy this year in Michigan and there is almost no roofing going on. I did pass a house the other day and noticed a tarp and piles of shingles beneath it. A tear off waiting for the weather to get above 5 degrees with a -20 wind chill. Brrr.

That's just about every day here this winter. I was up on one today with more snow than that to look at a skylight but it's actually easier with more snow, you can kick in steps and be pretty secure. But I try not to go over a 6/12 in these conditions. If the second half of this winter is anything like the first half records are going to fall.
