Snow fences??
Don't think so, there's only two, placed back to back. The snow fence is usually about 30 or 40 feet back from the shoulder, these are at least 400 feet from the road so would have no value as snow fence.
Although blueriver's conjecture did not gain much traction in the scientific community, he may have inspired this experiment in Indiana:

A line of pallets out in the field. The hope is that they will disrupt the wind flow and drop the snow just past the pallets and not on my drive. This isn't enough to make much difference right now, but if it works I can to find some more pallets and make a long line.
However it may be that this experiment is short lived:
The cows are pleased with the new scratching posts I supplied. They may all be knocked over before I get any results.
