snow in Illinois

[Gary Fowler]

I saw on the news yesterday that Chicago got about 9" of wet snow. I suppose you tractor folks in the area ran out and started clearing that stuff immediately just to get some practice in.

I live about 60 miles south and didn't get 1/2". I figure I won't see any snow for at least a year since I bought a blower for the tractor this year.:laughing:

LOL. I'm closing in on 2' right now and they say the snow should stop about 3am.

Crazyal, is that really 2 feet of snow or mistyped.

Perhaps he was so happy to finally get snow he cleared his yard of snow by putting it on his driveway so he could do some serious snow removal.

No mistype, 2 feet of snow, 5" to 10" were predicted. I waded through it today, about thigh deep. I had maybe 6" of crusty snow on the ground with bare spots starting to show thinking that we may have an early spring. At least it was fluffy stuff and had some fun blowing snow.

That storm was heavy with moisture. We got 12 inches in 6 1/2 hours. Wet stuff too.
