Same here..... Only about 7cm new snow, but it is best to keep it cleaned up as much as possible.. You never know when the next snow dump will happen this time of year..

After all....

6 hour clean up yesterday. The way it was coming down when I first went out at 5am I was starting to worry about having enough fuel and as of yesterday evening the main road still wasn't cleared.

It was 67 here yesterday with no wind. For that temp in Feb and no wind is really unheard of. But predicting a couple of inches of snow tomorrow night.

I think some apprehensive Chief's fans may have generated some of that heat!

Just checked my crystal ball this morning and it tells me you're gonna be a very busy man come summer.;)
Your crystal ball is 10000% on the money. ;)
Working on new house.
Tearing down old house.
Relocating shop section off old house.
Tons of other projects.
All the while doing jobs out and about to pay for it all.
No rest for me! :D

We were in the 40's here 2 days ago it was wonderful and melting like mad, now we are in the teen's and I don't even want to go outside!
Now they are calling for snow for the next 2 days...yuck!

I've already used the blower more this year than the last 2 combined. As the songs goes the thrill is gone.

We're slotted for 1-3" tomorrow and a little more over next couple days. That's just a nuisance snow here.

I know we've got some guys in the "Lake Effect" territory of Northern and Western New York - - - Blizzard Warnings in place.

I haven't seen the forecast, but hear guys like Tughill Tom might be looking at 3-4 FEET.

Ouch! :eek:

Take guys - - - you know who you are...:D

Oh yea, we're on it, Fuel, gas, beer.. Check. We're good to go. Should be able to get out and ride some sweet trails by Monday on the Doo, once the clean up is done. :D

We're supposed to get a foot or more by tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have to drive down to the city in the thick of it tonight. Guess I'll take the truck and worry about blowing out the drive when I get back.

We got 6" so far and it's blowing around pretty good. Got off my duff before dinner and started the M9 up and let it warm up for about 15 minutes (I like a warm cab) and attached the 10 foot power angle plow to the SSQA and plowed out the drives (mine and the rental) and removed the drifts from the road out front. Kind of a PITA plowing on a soft dirt road (it hasn't froze this winter at all) but I got it done. I too have to go to the city tomorrow but not until 10AM so all the fender benders will be over with.:D

Hopefully it's done and I don't expect it to hang around long, it's right at 31 now.
