Production Update

Hello everybody out there connected to the Husker Production Network and we hope that you all are having a great morning. As a light snow again dusts the frozen tundra that once was Omaha, we are reminded again (as if we weren't already) of the unpredictability of mother nature and her mission. As always this time of year, production is working through the difficulties attributed to weather and we ask again for everyone to strive for fluid communication and foresight on all jobs.

The light snow this morning will give way this afternoon to mostly cloudy skies with the high temp leveling off to around 30 degrees. Its still looking like the bottom is set to fall out of the thermometer later this week but the weather patterns also look like they may stabilize over the short to midterm futures and should be a benefit for production schedules moving into the new year.

Have a great day and God Bless!

Production Schedule Update

Good morning everyone, after a significant delay in production due to extreme weather related conditions we are looking to get back on track today. The 3 days of snow and cold that we have endured has essentially pushed the entire production schedule back accordingly. The weather does look to be steadying a bit after this latest fiasco and after a couple of small chances for freezing rain and drizzle this weekend, next week looks to be at least calm weather wise.

Partly sunny to sunny skies are forecast with temperatures holding steady in the mid to upper teens through Wednesday of next week. Long range models are showing a moderation in temperatures as we approach next Thursday with the high possibly approaching freezing (32). While these cold temps put a damper on installation efforts, we are now able to move forward at getting back on schedule.

Good day!
