Getting ready for 20 inches

problem is all men see 6" and say its 12", so measuring snow fall amounts is probably all off.

Our weathermen have a much greater imagination than yours apparently. 😆
We were supposed to have 8-12" by this morning and another 5-10" today. There's a whopping 15/16 (strong) out there right now. 🤪

Do you mean 15/16ths of one inch? Because 15-16" would be a pretty good forecast!

All I know is, after the extra few inches yesterday, it was a pretty heavy plow job, and I am just thankful we had enough to make an igloo. Haven't tried this idea before; it is taking a LOT of snow to build up, lol.

We're supposed to get another 16-22" out of the storm today... the same as what they predicted from the storm which the OP posted about.
We got 12" from that one instead... it'll be interesting to see what we end up with today.

We are supposed to get around 1/2" of ice Wednesday night. Mostly freezing rain with sleet to top it off. That usually means power outages.
Same here- western TN

We had a “feet of snow” forecast 2 weeks ago, they were thinking up to 3’ and we got 1/8”. We usually get from 60 to 100”’s per year. It can snow any month of the year. The deepest snow to date for the Mahindra is 5’ the day after I bought it. I’m all set but no snow. For the rear blade I installed a 2,000# linear actuator to angle the blade, which broke, so they sent a replacement part and then I reinforced the housing with 1/4” steel plates and installed a 1” thick rubber blade. The front bucket had a tear on each side so we welded it and added steel plate reinforcement to each side along with a new bolt on cutting edge.

Weather Guessers anyway, whats wrong with them!
They cry WOLF to get more View$. 2 blasts of less than 4" when a foot was predicted.
More adjectives that I thought could be applied! Monstrous, Bomb, cyclone, apocolypse, deadly, sever, life altering, BS. Just get in a few bags of Storm Chips and Beer.
