Probably got 8" here last night, but its still snowing. This will be the biggest since oct. Its been so warm here that the ice on my pond went out in early feb and was never safe. Ive been doibg spring tasks for a month since tbe ground isn't frozen and had to hurry last night to finish some stump removal before the snow hit.

Not much until last weekend. That was a good 2 feet. We got a little today, maybe 3 or 4 inches but it looks like there's rain in the future for us.

Received 11" of heavy wet snow last night, made short work of it this morning with the Grand L and the RB3584 Land Pride.

We aint had crap here in central OH. Which sucks because I plow commercially.

Fortunatally, I dont rely on the work. I just sub for a friend who owns a mowing/plowing business. For the last 6 years that I have plowed for him, I have plowed 50-55 hours each season over about 4-6 events.

This season.....1 event for 6.25 hrs:confused2:

I think I am definatally claiming a loss for next years taxes. Unless we get a big one in march like we did on '08:thumbsup:

We got about six inches beginning yesterday and today in my area of central MN. We also had some freezing rain first which caused the schools to close today. The snow was mixed, some that was blowing but most very wet with a blue tint under cloudy skies from all the water. We have had very little snow this year.

It was an atypical snowfall which is why so many of my neighbors had problems. It wasn't the amount of snow (nothing unusual) but the type.

From our local newspaper:

The first significant snowfall of the season dropped 7.8 inches of snow on St. Cloud

"We've got people that have plowed for 25 and 30 years. This snow is different than any of those (others)," said Jerry Kaeter, assistant director of St. Cloud public works.

The city has 24 snow plows.

Six times Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, plows got stuck and had to be pulled out because packed snow took away the traction, Kaeter said. Normally, a truck gets stuck occasionally, but not that many in one night, he said.

It's been a weird, mild winter for us too. Funny thing is we are finally leading in the total season snowfall in rochester, ny area compared to buffalo and syracuse. Those 2 other cities always beat us for snowfall season total, but this winter season ain't over yet. :thumbsup:
