Wow we've barely had any chance to post in this thread since April. It's a wonder that anything green is still alive out there.

Everyday this week will have rain. Plus rain/snow mix forecast for Friday.

Don't fight, it feel.

Another wet ride home, but thank Mother Earth for wool :)

If you have enough space at your desk\office\workstation\etc., hang or drape your wet clothes with a small fan blowing on them. Damp clothes will be dry within an hour, drenched clothes dry after your shift. Works great for sweaty clothes too.

Or if you are cool with the maintenance guys, get them to open the boiler room (if your building has one). That's where they dry out their clothes. I should have done that yesterday, but I found a heating duct to put everything next to. Didn't quite do the trick.

Could Minneapolis really be rainless from now until the weekend is over?

If you have a server closet, put your wet shoes/clothes in there. Just drape them over a server. Your IT guy will thank you for the water-cooling help.

Wednesday's ride home was by the far the most miserable I have had in a long while. Did not matter the direction I had cold, wet wind and freezing rain in my face for 15 miles :(

I want snow dammit
