True but man this sucks thou!! what if we lose a week and a half of build time? then what?

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

It's been rough down here in New Orleans also. Last weekend, almost half the team was wearing long sleeve shirts instead of the normal short sleeves.

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

We have had 3 so far. It would be nice if they extended it a couple of days.

Maybe FIRST can consider extending the deadline as they did a few years ago.

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

The weather isnt whats really effecting us....its the road conditions. We've called i believe 3 or 4 meetings now. Of course that doesnt slow us down much because we are a voc. tech school so we work on stuff during the day. there is probably 3-4 feet of standing snow in my yard right now along with 1/2 inch of sheer ice on anything else. i just had to take a hatchet to the roof (not damaging it of course) just to get the ice dams off.

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

We lost two days week 2. Not great but at least design can be done at home.

Today was our third day this week, tomorrow will be the forth. Loosing for days in week four hurts.

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

So far we've lost 2 days of work. Which, although they don't seem much in comparison to the North East, are pretty significant to us because we've been putting everything together to make sure it all works.

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

This day we lost today (maybe one tomorrow) did not really affect us because we were running out of things to do, we are waiting on new cims, new banebots transmissions and one of our seemingly endless orders from 8020 because we never seem to order enough (a lesson learned for next year, if we stick with 8020, order huge amounts before build season). Anyway this is day 5 that we lost with maybe day 6 tomorrow.

Zero. But it was by our standards pretty cold today!

Re: How many days have your team been effected by snow storms.

2 days going on 3 here. Might be a fourth but I doubt it cause my school district wouldn't cancel school 3 days in a row...

For those doing the math we canceled the meeting for the night the snow apocalypse hit even tho we had school that day.
