Found out one of my gutters was plugged up with leaves after water was running over. Last time that happened, I ended up with a little water in my basement. I ended up cleaning that gutter in the pouring rain but at least it is fixed.

I remember my dad having to do that sometimes. He'd be up on the ladder in his swimming trunks while cleaning the gutters.

I can smell that job.

Best done in the dark with lots of lightning.

Yup, my insurance agent actually just advised me to do it this way. Learned something new.

I would have both at the same time.

If you found a way to get both a contractor and adjuster to show up at the same time, you need to publish a book and make a fortune.

I've done it twice.

Has anyone worked with Erie home roofing? I just had a sales rep come to my door and they're going to take a look at my roof tomorrow - just wondering if people have had good experiences with this company or if I should avoid them?

I've always felt like if they're coming to you offering products or services, it's probably a scam. Vacuum sales, house painters, Jehovah witnesses, all of them. Scams.

Snow showers here in W. I, (Western Iowa for the Uneducated), the neighbor putting his sprayer in the shed so the pump doesn't freeze and crack. Learned his lesson from last Spring.

Flurries here at the Waukee Elementary Fun Run.

Read this as Furries and immediately became triggered to tell you to take it to the cave. Then I realized a pack of wild furries showing up at a Fun Run might be a bit of a spectacle.

Sleet / graupel in north Ames. Yay, Spring!!

 

[CychiatricWard]

I've done it twice.

Having a contractor, who is legit and will tel you honestly, is the best bet at the beginning. Have them look and then if warranted call and file a claim. I am a project manager for a small central Iowa company and if I see no to very little damage I tell the homeowner it really is not worth filing a claim. If it is damaged I will be there to work with the insurance to get everything that should be owed to the homeowner.

In the last week we've had snow, rain, drizzle, sleet and hail but no graupel. Can now add graupel.

 

[NWICY]

Everything from sunshine to snow, sleet and rain today.

Edit: also windy as hell all day.

We had a hail ball fight tonight in Urbana.
