Lake effect I presume.

this was real snow! not fake affect,
heavy at the bottom, cuz we had inches
of rain saturday/sunday before it turned to
snow.

Thanks for the pics and especially for using photobucket. That makes pic viewing so much easier.

 

[Dutch445]

you are welcome,
never knew it was easier that way,
will keep that in the back of my mind
for future pics

It has been snowing since late last night after raining most of yesterday. The storm warnings have been extended to 7pm tonight thus far. Rumor has it that the town plow got stuck and then the grader that went to rescue it. The next town over plowed my road mid morning thank you!

My Kubota has pushed snow on both properties 3 times since 6am. At this point I am running out of places to push it. (this is when I will wonder about a blower for a few weeks) I have at least one more round of plowing to do before tonight.

I was able to rescue one traveler who tried to run the road before the plow came by. I almost got sucked off the road because the snow was over my front axle.

Maybe two feet of snow since yesterday!! It is great insulation for my old house!!

Hey David,

Dang! That looks like fun. Here in Colorado we are slated to get only a few inches .. I know it's hard to hear me say it but .. I wish we had more here!

Thanks for the pics

I wish it was a month ago, not now.
we had a lot of rain friday/saturday/sunday am,
and now a lot of water is running under the snow.
makes for soft driveways, and not good for
snowmobiling!

besides, it's been a long cold winter here,
approaching 200 inches of snow, i'm ready
for it to go. spring is right around
the corner, right?

30" plus inchs since Sunday . That is a jee grand Cherokee in that pic , and 2 yellow labs in the other . I keep my tractor in the basement garage and had a hard time getting out, had at least a foot on the ground before we the the 30 on top of that, made it out about 50 feet but keep digging in and getting stuck, finally was able to turn it around and put it away. I will try again after it settles a bit.
