Same here. No snow though.
Another good dump this morning !
Here's a photo of my snow remover, I call it "The Bastard" since it's a mix of Craftsman snow blower and John Deere F910 front mower. It's a lot of fun, not only using it, but watching the neighbors peering out their windows to see "what the **** is that thing?"

My friend says it looks like something from the Willy Wonka factory, lol.

Nice. That is one fine piece of engineering. The ODB. Love it.
Per my profile pic I have a John Deere Compact 4010, probably barely makes the definition as a Tractor. I have FEL that I use to manage the snow on my 100 ft drive and a 3000 sq ft parking area. I use the FEL by default as it came with the Tractor. I always thought I would be better off with a blade/plow until I seen a friend hiring someone come with a FEL & Dump truck to load up his snow because he could not find anywhere else to push it, We get a lot of snow here and winter is long. But my Doctor who has more area to clear has a blower on his and wow that moves a lot of now and no banks. So my observation is that if you can afford it a blower is the way to go. But for me I have to keep working with my FEL, it takes longer but less maintenance expense and it does allow me to pick up and move my own snow when I run out of space.
