“E”, thanks for *_‘charging the batteries’!
_* It worked for us here in SE CT too. A couple of blips of power outages <5 minutes, but enough to give you a scare. Even your hotrodded C8 could not cut through the big blow.
Got the wood, got the 12v lantern system ready to go if necessary. (gotta rethink my position on kero, never have more than 2-3 gallons)
Now to figure out how to move 2’ snow and 3’ + of drifts…
Fun to look at, too old too shovel…
I hear you on the shoveling, luckily my girl is 12 years younger than me and in great shape so she shovels the deck and the rest I can do with the snowblower.
It was blowing so hard last night I had to turn my headlamp off it was just reflecting off the snow making visibility worse.
Wow!! That is unreal!! We don’t get snow like that but the last couple of weeks here have brought us –54F with the wind chill. Our biggest snowfall this year has only been a few inches so I can’t even imagine what you guys are all experiencing!
Honestly, I’d rather have that kind of snow than –54F but the last time we had a blizzard anywhere near those snowfall amounts, we had the flood of the century.
Good luck to all who are dealing with that incredible winter storm!!
yeah, id much rather have this snow than that cold weather. i used to be immune to the cold, but the last few years it has hit me.
we got somewhere around 18-20”… no biggie… wind blew most of the snow off the car… where i work got about 24”… but the next town over some how got 36”
For all the howling wind we didn’t loose power once, nice!
A friend gave me a call on his way home from work to see if I had any sheer pins for his snow blower. I taped them to a football and had my son toss it to him from the garage.
now that cop car would be able to handle a pursuit in this weather lol.
sure you just werent causing trouble, throwing balls at passing police? :bigsmile:
its been a lazy morning so i havent gotten any pics yet
This is going to be a long cleanup 6 hours was way to long to sleep. The snow is a solid 30 inches deep with drifts over 40, much deeper than my snow blower by can handle.
Nemo aftermath. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be
The life saver

As a currently left-coast placed Easterner, I AM SOOOO JEALOUS!

Still snowing here, will be until later tonight, about 25cm down right now, 15-20 still to go apparently. Wind is starting to pick up, but the storm is loosing it’s intensity as it goes over the ocean.
That’s a very nice snow blower Glenn, and your house is gorgeous!!

Thanks Rick :) Talking about nice houses, dchomak's got a really nice house. and much deeper snow!
I couldn’t imagine all that snow!!! That’s crazy!!!
so i didnt realize that my loaner phone needs a memory card in it to take pics, so none from me 
about 20 mins of shoveling and i have about 1/20th of my driveway done… yay for procrastination on fixing my snow blower… may break down and get someone to plow, but i hate cleaning the gravel off my lawn and patching where the plow dug the lawn up…
I could really use a snow blower. 
I forgot what a royal pain the butt it is to shovel snow. Living in apartment complex, not even supposed to have to shovel it... took me an hour to clean the car, stairs for myself, and old neighbors, and a path to sidewalk. Conclusion: I'm tired, and out of shape.
Can't imagine how you guys with more snow are faring. Good luck and take it slow.
60 foot driveway with 3+ foot snow drifts.
3:53 pm and plow guy is still a no show. Looks like I'm going nowhere.
another 20 mins and one car almost dug out… man i need a smaller driveway. looking at the snow bank and drift at the end of my driveway (by the road), im not sure if my xterra is going to be able to get out until i shovel it…
