Snow snow storm

[Henri88]

A man, this is killing me, the biggest snow storm of the year coming down (18 to 24'' predicted), and I'm stuck in a hotel in Woodstock N.B. at my daughter hockey tournament, and in the mean time my oldest son is the one enjoying my seat time. Just needed to vent out a little. Sorry.

As much fun as I have on my tractor, I'd be happy as **** is someone else did my snow plowing for me when a big storm hit.

I have 5 propertys to clear of snow, so I'm sure thats why I hate doing it.

Feel sorry for your predicament there Henri88.
Bummer to have to be stuck in a hotel anytime, let alone when there is snow to move at home.

Henri,
I was lucky this year with my daughter's hockey schedule, the first half were all away games before any snow, so I have not not missed the 2 times enjoying my new cab on the Kubota L3540. On the other hand, my son is not home anymore, off to college, and my daughter has 1 more year of hockey and she will be gone too, winters and snow will be forever because I'm not buying the "global warming" thing, the kids being gone is harder for me.
Take care and enjoy everything as it comes,

Cheers, and Happy New Year,
Jake

Wow!! Well I put my Deere to the test this morning! I just got back in from digging myself out! I just gotta say...WOW....that was alot of snow! Then it rained on top of that!! LOVE my Deere but I do need chains!
My drive is at an incline and with the snow and rain...I had NO traction at all. I always keep sand nearby thank God...cause I needed that this morning.
Still had a blast though

If anyone wants to enjoy more snow clearing time I've got some!

I'll gladly watch!

Like they say.."Timing is everything"
If your getting the winds,theres always part 2 of clean up.

 

[Ductape]

Boy, i feel totally ripped off. If you include the snow we got Thursday, i'd say our total snowfall for this monster storm was about four and a half inches......... five tops. What a sham !

Whats up with them reporting over 11 inches in Laconia ???? I need to find out where they are buying their rulers, so i can use that one to measure my @!$&. Finally, my wife would be impressed !

Well gave my 2305 a run this morning. With heavy snow and lots of it I cleared my drive and three of my neighbors. Let me tell you the 2305 with snowblower on the front is sure easy on the back.

Talking about snow....Just west of me in Berrien Springs, MI, the lake effect snow monster has been there for the last couple of days and will continue to be there for another couple of days. So far, from what I have been told, they are sitting on 32 inches with a lot more coming.

When my house was under construction we had 120" of snow, PITA. All I had a shovel. Now I have my driveway paved, a BX 2350 with a plow and squeegee and warm gloves and Nata. Last year almost no snow and so far this year > 10". Storms pass to the east, they past to the north but no seat time for me. Oh well the grass grows well?

(I like your handle)

Along the same line, I just finished a wing plow to go with my front blade, and now expect there will be little to no snow to wing back.
But glad I have it "just in case"

Well you know what they say, be careful what you wish for......

But I am getting a little bored with this winter as well. we've only had 2 dinky little snows, got my whole fleet ready to roll (my fleet is just my own equipment) and we get 3 days of flurries, at least we have snow covered ground and cold temps so it feels like winter.

Yup! I'm in the same boat, maybe 5" since last Thursday.
22" in Lincoln NH 33" in Burlington and I got 5"
Ductape, if you find that ruler get 2 I'll use it for fishing too

Well lake affect snow has been hitting. Since Sat. we have had close to 20" ,picked up 12-14" yesterday ,plus the 4-6" that was already on the ground. There calling for us to get 4-8" and could be as much as 12" tonight. Then Thur another storm moving in and it could bring 2'. I just know since Sat I had about 15 hrs of seat time. I will have to agree with some of the others the JD 47" front blower will move a lot of snow in a short time... I did all the driveways and church lot plus 2 other ,1 about a 1/4 mile away ,that I very seldom do. in about 20 min less time than when I was plowing with my front blade thats 60" wide. All total tonight just alittle over 3hrs ,yes blower or plow much much, better than using a shove..and a lot easier on the back...

Ductape, you should know by now that the "weather station" can't give the right information until we have the tourists past the toll gate, and liquor store on Friday night. Gotta wait until 7:00 pm on Friday at least. Till then a freezing rain mix can be 12" of powder!

( there was about 8 1/2" total here in the last four days west of Lake Sunapee)
