We had a crazy windy snow storm Friday night, my hard hat blew off 3 times and had to chase it across the battery . I ended up having to put it backwards so it wouldnt catch so bad

With my full face respirator the beak of the hat sits up a bit more than usual. felt like a fool chasing it
We didnt get alot of snow, but the wind made it seem like we were. There is a set of heavy steel doors where we fill the machines up with coal, I dont think they left 45 degrees all night
