I hope this doesn't offend any one, but it's the way I feel right now.
Just got a foot last night that makes 4+ feet on the ground, and 8+ feet of berms, I'm sick of snow! :mad:
Now they are calling for another 4" to 10" over night. :(

Man that sucks!! Not trying to be a smart ass but our snow is almost gone, frost is coming out (never a good thing in here) and 2 days of rain coming, then cold again. Heat would be a good thing. Take care buddy, it'll be just a memory soon.

Yup, be careful what you ask for. We'll have to park the suv almost a mile out the road and use the atv to commute until it freezes again.

We got around 4" of rain last night. 2" of it was in half an hour :eek: Yard looked like a lake. We were under tornado warnings till around 4am. With a small one touching down in a field a couple miles from us, then breaking up. Then to top it off, lighting struck the telephone pole by the house and blew the fuses for the transformer. So... we were the only house on the street with out power :rolleyes: With 5 minutes on the timer before dinner was ready :rolleyes: Got lucky and the burner on the stove retained enough heat to finish cooking dinner :D

Gonna have to inspect everything tonight for damage. Winds were pretty bad last night, and had to remove some small tree limbs off the truck this morning. That's not counting the few bangs I heard from other directions during the initial storm. :rolleyes:

I have a frost heave showing its ugly head on the county road. A crack with two inch lift running perpendicular and all the way across and another crack with two inch lift running down the center of road which last I looked was a good 100 feet long....gonna be be a hell of a break up/mud time. First stage road restrictions are now on. I am still like Wolfman, 5 feet of snow 8 foot berms.

I wish it would snow here instead of this 50-65 degrees weather crap we have been having.

The wife's headed to Phoenix next week, I could have her bring you a suitcase full... Now if I could only afford for her to make that trip about 100,000 more times we might cut some of the snow down in the front yard!

And Yes.... it's snowing more as I type this! :mad:

Careful what you wish for. After a week of thawing temps and rain knocked the snow pack down to 1/2 it's former glory, yesterday's rain changed to snow when the temps plunged to -19°C overnight. My driveway is now 2" of snow layered onto glare ice.

Wheeeee!!! :eek:

I appreciate the offer, but a suitcase full wouldn't let me play- I mean work, with the tractor.:D

But, but, but, I'm a nor wester! :eek:
Don't be greedy Wolfman, you have to let the rest of us have some. Yes Skeets, it's been a different kind of winter if that's what you'd call it, lakes completely open here now, crazy for this time of year but I'm good with that.
