Hope this isn't a bait and switch and they mean: "Want to clean up ralph."

 

Who wants to be a janitor @ a local school... Going around cleaning up the puke from students during the height of flu season! Do you get to carry that red powder, absorbent stuff and a dust pan too?

 

;-P

 

 

 

yea man, need to get the stadium cleared by Cleveland game (and ideally before the big melt so the stadium isnt under water)

 

Won't the water just drain towards the field. It's gotta handle the normal rain too? It's the refreeze that's the problem!

Yeah, I guess you are right... It depends how fast it melts, refreezes and what drains are blocked up

. Also, water content of the snow... Some snow doesn't hold that much moisture. Was this a "heavy" snow... Temps were pretty cold, so it might be "light." It all depends where it goes and how it can get there.

 

The average is 10:1. That puts this 5' @ about 6" of rain sitting there all @ once (well not really all once, slow melt, sublimation, etc...). That's a pretty big water event!

 

A slow melt would be nice... Time, time, time!!!
