Tyll Hertsens Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Well....might as well bump this bitch after shoveling my driveway yesterday for 2.5 hours. About 6-8" of wetish shit. Today I woke to 2" of fluff. Really can't complain though. Thought a lot about the poor fuckers in NY without heat and power...or even houses. I'm just getting exercise without having to pay a gym membership. Stay warm! Quote
n_maher Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 What little we got earlier in the week is pretty much gone and on top of that it's supposed to be near 70 on Monday. Yay global warming. Quote
Knuckledragger Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 What Nate said. It's 57º here right now. Quote
luvdunhill Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Flew through SLC, UT and had delays due to snow. None here in Idaho though. Quote
swt61 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Really can't complain though. No shit! you live in fucking Montana! Colder here today as well. Expecting a high of only 82. Quote
acidbasement Posted November 11, 2012 Report Posted November 11, 2012 8" fresh here. We got spoiled the last few years with really mild falls. This one has been more average. I think I'm going to dust off my x-c ski gear soon. Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Posted February 7, 2013 Well, with up to 2 feet of snow expected on Friday, I went and got a new snow shovel to replace the one I broke earlier in the season. What I really wanted was a snow blower, though. Quote
n_maher Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 I'll be making sure the tractor gassed up and ready to go. Quote
Aura Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 Nasty slushy bullshit is everywhere here. I thought my team got back to O'Hare with enough time for everyone to leave, but my colleague from Toronto had his flight expectedly cancelled. Other colleague from New York is lucky enough to be going to South Carolina this weekend. Stay safe northeast HC'ers. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah, keep safe, Noreasters. Quote
n_maher Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 6 to 8" already and we aren't even at the height of it yet. Pics and maybe video tomorrow. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Lots of bokeh, please. Mmm...in-n-out of focus snowflakes... Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Decent chunk of snow, though hard to tell with wind/snow drift (one side of our cars have relatively little snow while the other side have over 2 feet). I have to go out soon and get the snow off my deck as there is over 3 feet of snow on it. Here's a horrible SOOC shot from our side door. _HDL6555 by Haj Okuda, on Flickr Edited February 9, 2013 by Salt Peanuts Quote
skullguise Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Haj, we have the same thing with drifts. Our back deck is an amazing contrast: Quote
n_maher Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 It's still snowing quite hard here, I'd guess we've gotten between 16 and 20" or so but like everyone else the drifting is crazy. My car has been nearly swallowed whole. The worst of it is supposed to be over by 2pm so it'll be an interesting afternoon of trying to clear the driveway. Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Posted February 9, 2013 Just cleared off the roof on the backyard side. There were 3-4 feel of snow on there and it was making me bit nervous. The roof on the front, on the other hand, has virtually no snow. Not that I'm complaining since I hate raking snow off the roof. Quote
deepak Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Lots of snow here and still coming down. Snowblower got stuck in a few spots Fortunately it's a weekend and I have nowhere to be. Quote
skullguise Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Good luck to all snowblowing, shoveling, and plowing.....and be careful. Just finished my walkway, top of the driveway, and roof; we have a plow service but the drifts were ugly. Nice neighbor with snowblower helped with the top of the driveway.... Same roof situation as Haj, drifts caused big piles on one section & side, minimal on the other. Thankfully not heavy snow here, but Cape Cod I heard got a lot of wet snow to start. Quote
aerius Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 We got about 10 inches dumped on us, with about 12-18" in the snowdrifts. It was fairly light fluffy stuff so shoveling it wasn't all that bad except for the end of the driveway where the snowplows piled up a massive ridge of compacted icy snow. Quote
Bigguy Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 The snow is a cover for an Empire assault! Quote
en480c4 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 We had around 27" at 8 am, and its still snowing. It's crazy... The pup's head barely stuck up over the snow! Quote
bozebuttons Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Not as much snow as the NH guys ,But it was higher then my snow blower.finished cleaning up the driveway around 12:30. Quote
