High of 81* today, beautiful & sunny day with a slight breeze. Too bad I was at my 2nd job most of the day.

I hope he drags it out of here. So far about 10", they're saying another 6" before it stops sometime after midnight. That's right 15.9" predicted for us, 16.5" in Flint. I could use Tony's Ford SS tractor, have 4' piles of snow we've been pushing off the drive. My tractor isn't big enough to push them any more so we're running out room to put the snow.

Oh, and it get's better, temps are going to keep dropping to about -4 tomorrow afternoon. That's right, not overnight but what should be the warmest time of day.

Hank, I am feeling your pain. I don't have a plow, but a small snowblower. Right now I think we have about 7" on the ground. I don't know about you, but the roads are really crappy right now. And with the temps dropping, it will turn into a sheet of ice underneath.

My son asked me if he was done using the snowblower today. I said no, he is probably going to have to do it again around 8pm, and first thing in the morning when he gets up. He was not happy. Teenagers.....

Snow blower for us would rarely get used. We get about 2 inches every 6 years or so. Sometimes I wish we got a little more once in a while. We have only about a 2 percent chance of having snow at Christmas. If we had 14 inches of snow in our part of the country we would be paralyzed. No one knows how to drive in it.

About the same as here in GA.

Well we got around 15", they said 15.4" in Howell which just a little west of here. I'll have to go clean the drive again this morning, there's another 4-5" out there. It's 14* now, don't want to do it this afternoon when the temps are supposed to be close to 0.

We had a snow blower but with the way the shed and garage are I had to blow snow in front of me for about 30' instead of to the side. So you keep running into the snow you already moved getting deeper and heavier. The tractor has worked good but this is just too much for a small garden tractor.
