Who Has Snow?

[rake60]

We are certainly not getting the worst of this storm, but it has been an interesting
day here. I've had the snowthrower out twice and shoveled three times.
Now we are getting 30 MPH winds that are making some small mountains.

On a positive note, the DPW guys got to use some of their bigger toys.
This is out my front window around 3:00PM today.

Want to talk about getting plowed in?

Officially:

That's not so bad if it would just stay in one place! :

My back porch...

Still snowing. It's 9:21.

I've been out 5 (or is it 6) times...got a little electric snowblower.
No place to put the snow anymore. Snowblower doesn't blow above 3'.

Fellow, Living in South Louisiana have never seen snow other that a few flake fell this year and melted before they hit the ground, that was for one afternoon, my wife and I have said that someday we would like to go somewhere and see the snow but you being in probably would not think much of that, it sure looks good, don't fully understand how you can get around and what must it be like when it melts, well I guess we will deal with the mild winter and the 100 degree 100% humidity that last about 10 months out of the year, you all stay warm and dig out in the spring, Lathe Nut

I think we got 0.031" today. A little sleet pellet hit me as I was coming in from lunch. :big: :big:

We are starting to slowly melt out here but now have a new 4 to 7 inches
expected tonight. The melting isn't all good either. I happened to look out
the dining room window this morning and noticed a little icicle starting to grow.

That seemed a little odd. There are no ledges or overhangs outside that window.
When I went out to investigate, I found where it was coming from.

Now that's no good at all! That icicle is about 8 feet long and 15 inches in diameter
at the top. I have no idea what is keeping that rain gutter up there. Maybe it's
frozen to the roof as well.
If it falls and breaks out that big storm window, maybe I'll finally repaint the area
between the window and storm window.

Ya know what is weird? I was watching the Winter Olympics from Vancouver.....50degrees and they are hauling in snow. Rick and Zee, send them some of yours. I wonder watch the going price is for snow?

My stepson lives is Kelowna BC.
He isn't complaining about the global warming effects either.
They are happy to see the harsher winter weather shifting southward
leaving them alone.

As for the Olympics, GO CANADA GO!
From a USA observer who has some very important interests there.
