Yep, mine's warming up now; we got just enough (about 2-1/2") to justify using the tractor/blower. Should only take about 1/2 hr to get everything cleaned up. It's been a light year for snow in the CT River Valley of NH -- I don't think we have more than 6" on the ground at the moment.

Well, I guess I spoke too soon! Another "shower" came by and quickly dropped another 2"+. Folks are saying the roads are messy; apparently a roll-over on Rte 4 not far from here....

Tuesday's photo of the driveway 6" new snowfall and 4th time plowing this season.

Plowing for the 5th time this season with another 6" of snowfall this morning.

It's 1F on the back deck right now and it's forcasting for -15F tonight, guess that little rodent was wrong this year again.

More snow for this weekend, good we still need a lot more for a normal season.

Vacation over after 26 days. Just came in from moving what they say was 8". Hard to tell with the drifting. Expecting more tomorrow.

We are 50" behind here, I hope we don't catch up,.

My tractor hasn't been started, since I put the plow on it last October.

We got 4" once. I don't plow the first 4" to keep from moving the gravel. That snow melted in two days.

Last night, we got 2". Also expected to melt soon.

Would rather not put up all that snow fence, and put the plow on, for one or two storms. But, you know what happens if I don't.

I have snow fence permanently up. The type that is metal wire and lath slats. I don't want to put it up and take it down and the plastic stuff just gets ripped up in the wind I get. Found the perfect place to put it and there it is. Neighbors don't like it, but f them unless they want to help me take it down and put it back up 3 3 months later.

Here's a photo of the driveway this morning.

It's -7°F on the back deck now, and very slightly warming up this morning.

No sign of driveway ice melting.

Oliver (563) and Elie (2310)haven't started since I think October.
Arnie (563) hasn't run in 2-3 weeks.
Not enough snow.
I might start them this afternoon just to warm them up and move them so the tires don't flat spot too much.
