The wind off the Connecticut River floodplain has nothing at all to slow it down, and when a storm sets in over South Windsor it comes across those flat open fields in sheets. Samsel Management, LLC works the dark side of that weather, plowing, opening lots and drives, keeping walkways passable while the rest of town sleeps through it. Night plowing is its own discipline: knowing the pitch of a lot, where to stack, how to leave room for whatever the next band brings. By the time the sky goes gray over Route 5, the pavement is open and the day can start on time. That is the entire point of it.
