Yeah, throwing snow that high with a shovel is how I invented sciatica. I appreciate the need to keep the snow from pressing against the windows, but MAN! That guy has a long way to go.

I thought surely you would have a picture of my ex-wife posted as she was one cold bitch.

Yes, it's frozen. Reportedly, no sign of injury, but the snow could be hiding a lot.

We have a good amount of snow but not like that. Our temps are averaging a few degrees higher than normal this year for our normal.

Looking to get away from it all?

"The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML) is seeking one primary technician for Winter 2025 at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, and one alternate technician who would deploy if primary candidates cannot deploy or must leave Antarctica before winter.
NOAA technicians work at the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station to operate, calibrate, and maintain NOAA and partner climate instrumentation and projects for a one-year period. The team collects high quality data to monitor the composition of the atmosphere and the Earth’s energy budget, enabling researchers to understand how the climate changes over time. They also serve as members of the station’s Emergency Response Team and assist with community tasks such as cleaning the station, station opening/closing tasks, and other duties as assigned.
