Re: Y\'all asked for it.........SNOW!

I thought that was a bit ironic, with all the fear of "global warming" NYC got more snow in a 24hr period than they have ever had since record keeping began...

It snowed on and of all day yesturday in South Atlanta... We got about 1/8" to wake up too /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif, but nothing else stuck /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif.. We havent had much to speak if in the past couple of years, so the kid was disapointed...Guess I was too, but I get to drive to Knoxville this morning... That should be fun, their talking about icey roads starting north of Atlanta....

17 inches fell here. It is nice to see the ground covered again. At least this time the ground is frozen underneath.

Re: Y\'all asked for it.........SNOW!

We got 19 inches on the North Shore of Boston - officially, but it is really hard to tell as it was blowing and drifting like crazy.

Great fun yesterday though. We get big drifts (up to 7 feet) down the center of our driveway. About 1 PM they were up to about three feet. I went out and simply drove through them with the loader - 20 minutes and the drive was cleared!!

First winter with a semi real tractor - JD 445 with a loader. I know it's more like a toy to some of you, but it works for me.

Here's one pic...

That's a VW Jetta for a height comparison. This was from a 20+" storm in 2003 with 50-60MPH winds. Pre-tractor, pre-snowblower it took my wife and I 7 hours to shovel the drive.

Bought a snowblower the next week!

Re: Y\'all asked for it.........SNOW!

It snowed all day here, and we accumulated all of about 1/2", but only on the ground, the pavement stayed clear.
Today, it was 15* when I came to work at 6 am and it's supposed to be close to 60* later this afternoon! Snow never had a chance this year for us here in KC.......
