It's hard to tell how much snow we got in my area of NH.  The wind really picked up yesterday afternoon and there was places where the drifts were over a foot deep and places where there was no snow at all.  I guess we're expecting more over the weekend; bring it on.  The tractor is fueled, snow blower greased and ready to go.  It was 0 degrees with a healthy "breeze" outside but it is 70 and comfortable inside.  Roger

We got about 14" here but it all came in a short  time. I left in the morning in rain and drove home a couple hours later in a white out with several inches on the road. Winds here were the big deal 30+ mph NW with gusts 60+. Nice and warm in the house anyway. Looks like more Sat. and Mon.

Bring it on! Radio said in the next 7 days parts of Maine could see up to 44" of white gold.

You guys up in Maine can have it. I will admit it was really beautiful out this morning when I was plowing , but it can melt now. I used to love snow could't get enough of it , more the better , but now I could go without it. Shoveling off staging , roofs , decks ect. gets old then trying not to slide off to your death gets old. Production goes down when you try to work in the snow. Seems like every winter we work outside , then it gets nice and we end up inside. Oh well we're big boys we can deal with it.

We had 18" this week and now we may be getting another 10-12 Tomorrow.  Big Al i am with you, I am sick of cleaning up snow. But a 1/4 mile drive and clearing chicken coops etc adds up. The only beautiful snow is when its gone.

Have more mud than snow as off noon. Was quite bitter yesterday, was hooking up a G100 for a show, took the wife's hair dryer along to make the pex pliable enough to get the unions together. Today by noon if you weren’t parked on gravel you were stuck.

Holy Moly!  We didn't get that much where I am in NH.  I think maybe a foot.  I think I posted somewhere else for slimjim's benefit a couple of pics of my system to clear my yard.  I tried to post a video of it but the site kept giving me the finger.  Roger
