Contractors: Need Snow Totals? We've Got Em'

Just a quick note. . with the active winter, contractors are pulling their hair out trying to make heads and tales of how much snow has fallen "after-the-fact" for billing purposes. I continue to run a service called The Snow Force, which provides a much more accurate tally of how much has fallen town by town. I have never had so much interest in this service as this past season. For more information, email me.
