6 inches here in central nh. I hadn't touched my sleds last season either. Couldn't resist pulling them out, putting fresh gas in them and ripping them around the field.

I woke up at 2 AM to what looked like dawn, very light outside, full moon with snow cover of about 4 inches. Forgot my smokes in the bus and had to walk down to the garage to get them, no flashlight needed and surprisingly warm!

I just came in from putting wood in the OWB and I too was surprised how bright it is this morning.  I now I know why I was having trouble falling asleep. 

It's really nice to have the ground cover but I wish the ground was a bit more frozen.  When I cleared the 6 inches of snow from the driveway last evening, I have an area that's not paved, it's part of my lawn but I need to clear it of snow, needless to say that huge blower on the front of my tractor deposited some of it about 50 feet away.  I know I'll have bit of landscaping to do this spring.   >:(  Roger

Got lucky here, good and froze here before the snow.

I know the feeling, nothing like spending a few days in the spring raking rocks out of the grass.

Bought one of these years ago for my Kombi, makes a few day job into a day or less.
