Just a heads up PA is 45mph statewide tonight

I'm just getting up and it's 65, will be hitting 74 this afternoon.
Kinda a chilly last night , overnight was about 46.

 

More like 10 sitting in different locations and 3 actually in gear.

 

I for one like 4 seasons and living here in PA. I cant see living anywhere else and ive been all over the world.

 

Turns out 8 inches laid in the lehigh valley. It was supposed to be 2 to 4. Lol

 

I recall PA being a little reluctant to get out and plow snow in a timely fashion compared to NY state. STill a issue?
JMHO

 

The Harrisburg news channels and Penndot blame the mess in the Harrisburg area on everyone leaving work early, and of course the tractor trailers. (Abc27 and Pennlive hate trucks) They never said a word about Penndot dropping the ball though.

Back in 2007 I think it was, we had a storm on Valentine's day that was the same deal. Snow, then ice, then snow to finish. Penndot, in all their infinite wisdom, decided to not do anything until the snow ended. They failed to realize that there were thousands of people at work during the storm that had to go home during the storm. Then the gridlock hit. I heard stories of drivers being stuck on 78 for 48 hours. The National Guard was actually out delivering food and gas to the cars.

Of course, there was a bunch of hearings in Harrisburg over this, and a bunch of lip service paid by the politicians.

Obviously nothing changed. I'm glad I sat at home through this one.

 

So MACK- im over at capital tristate on hamburg and Russell deliverin' and I need to get over to edgemere. Not paying the Tunnel, so I Run Pratt to President to Fleet- Now Im on fleet and their signs saying local deliveries photo enforced-

Explain that one..........

 

PennDOT is looking for temp drivers to plow roads. Who the heck wants to be a temp driver, 0.1% chance to get hired on full time. also PennDOT rarely does anything except play and sleep with each other in the work trucks and sheds. It's mostly all sub contracted work anything major. PennDOT is useless and wonders why can't find plow drivers. Same with turnpike commision, pretend to work doing dumb crap and give away work to subcontractors. this State is a flippin joke.Only thing they pretend to do is plow roads

Edit: the subcontractors pay more then PennDOT. Why work for PennDOT ? oh easy life that's why !
