Weather: Don't Complain Or It Will Get Worse

     It's warming up and I should be happy.  But the next 24 hours are very likely to include freezing rain and that, for complicated reasons that I can't explain right now, has the potential to make my life very exciting.

     Oh, I sure hope not.

    Of all weather, I dislike freezing rain the most. At least, in this part of the country.

    About a quarter of the way through my Army career I changed "Don't complain or it will get worse" to "Don't even mention the weather or it will get worse."
    "Gee, nice day" was inevitably followed torrential downpours or something.
    Considering that I was a Light Fighter at the time, dependent on LPCs for transport, this was... awful.
    Anyway. I hope things go well for you.

    I hope they don't have you scheduled for a tower climb. Why is it that the manufacturers expiration date on bulbs coincide with really nasty weather? Or, perish the thought, pulling up a new run of coax...

    I do -- and I need their services. This is not possible when it is extremely cold or there's ice all over the tower.
