sleeper 12-20-2009, 01:15 AM Yep you guys got hammered.. Watched it on National Weather Channel.
c2vette 12-20-2009, 01:24 AM 70 deg here and nice hiking weather. Somehow it looks more like Christmas where you are though. Thanks for the photos.
VictorySpark08 12-20-2009, 10:22 AM Good place for all that Snow. Although i shouldn't talk we already go blasted with a Foot week and a half ago and there is another Xmas Eve/Christmas Day Storm on the Horizon. All there saying is Big Storm? Which i could be a weather man just blame it on the computer system if u get nothing.
urbexHHR 12-20-2009, 11:41 AM OH MY GOD!!!! I hate winter...
Kinison_fan 12-20-2009, 02:52 PM I had to use the snow blower three different times just to keep up.
Looks like we got about 16-20" total.
What a pain in the back (and lower).
Surprisingly the roads are pretty clear (at least in the neighborhood).
wihockey11 12-20-2009, 02:56 PM I live on Long Island i have never seen this much snow in my 17 years of life that i remember we have about 2.5-3 feet of snow the snow was taller then my snowblower the only thing poping outta the snow was the chute
ballplr 12-20-2009, 03:00 PM we got hammered as well around 18 inches LOVE SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank goodness for the snow blower

Bill- Perhaps you need a 'back-pack' that holds a load of salt & has a spreader on the bottom..Make your snow-blower sweeps count. Would help your back as well..
My youngest sister & her family are up in PA. just outside of Pittsburgh..
ballplr-
I really don't share your love of snow. LOL.. I don't mind seeing it on National Weather. But that's about the extent of it..
My middle sister & her family though, are up in Arlington.
I'm the oldest & only male of our family..
Mowgli 12-20-2009, 05:04 PM After all was said and done by 3PM we only had 8" of powder.
1½ hours with a new(to me) snowblower for 3 driveways and assorted paths.
The controls layout on the Toro makes me miss the Ariens.
The Toro's a beast but I liked the controls layout better on the Ariens.
Hot supper with 4 Ibuprofen and I'll be good as Gnu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU).
twistrman 12-20-2009, 05:58 PM i want some. i love the white stuff.
hoping it snows when i am up in michigan, not before since i have to drive 6 hours up there. Bringing my snowshoes with me and some high hopes.

Sorry...we could get up to one inch tomorrow, but other than that just flurries until and through Christmas....
(And that one inch is on top of the 1/4 inch we already have...)

I have an Ariens 524 for the sidewalks. Outstanding machine.
I also use a 22HP garden tractor with a plow for close to the house and garage.
I also use a Western plow on my S10 for the rest.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) we only got maybe about an inch or 2 up here in NY State.
