Another blizzard coming?

   / Another blizzard coming? #11  
It's killing my pocketbook... Quarter of my income is from the 36 hole golf course next door... Snow on the ground since 18 December 09!

NWS Now calling for 10-20" of snow. Yesterday they said 3-6". have about 3" already.

I dug out the tractor, fixed broken 3pt link and cleaned the driveway. Bring it on:)

Only roofs worry me now.

It is nasty outside. 14" of new snow, blowing, drifting.
I did get out and pushed the driveway and the neighbors driveway, they got a 4x4 stuck in their driveway. I have piles of snow as high as my loader will reach.
I got big drifts on the roof. I got some off with a snow rake I made, a 16' 2x4 with a plywood paddle nailed on, looks like a giant hoe. I can reach some places from the ground and pull snow off. I shoveled one big drift last night reaching out of an upstairs window.

Hi Matt,

Well, it's been a good year to figure what all you need for the tractor when it comes to snow. :D Chains are definitely the thing to have. It's got to be a bit frustrating, I know. Soon as you get some, it won't snow like this for five years.
Dave.

Well, I cut up the chains for my trucks front axle and they worked great. A little loose, but I'll shorten them up a little more in the spring. They'll work till then. Had to tighten the heck out of the tensioners with some carabiners zigzagging around. I'm just happy I don't have to shovel anymore:D:D.

:D on a Federal holiday - what are they worried about

Since I can't get the BX back down to the "barn" it is ready to go - just in case.

I figure an inch will cover my dirty piles of snow up right nice......
