New snow

[3 Horse Ranch]

Where do guys find the cumulative snow amounts for your area. All I can find for anywhere near us is annual averages for a small town about 20km from us.

Howmuchwillitsnow.com. It does a running 6 years of data showing year cumulative as well as dates and amounts for snow events.

Thanks but it doesn't provide information for Canadian cities.

Our temps have swung around to the warm side for the last few weeks and hover around freezing overnight and up to 10* C during the daytime. Shorts weather, lol. I was getting all excited to go camping and fishing again and then reality set in. It's February and this morning the temp is -13*C and we might get a little snow. I still have over a foot of snow on the ground even though we've had rain and sunshine for weeks.

Had a whole week of no snow clearing, ended abruptly last night. Full blown weather advisory, blowing snow, whiteout conditions.

The wind wasn't in my favor. 80 % of the driveway had almost two ft of drifted snow. Four hrs to do the minimum yard and road. Damn near ready to call a neighbor for help. He has a 120 hp New Holland with an eight ft double auger blower. My 1742 felt quite underpowered.

Well we’re into it again, the view on the way home from the dr office. Crazy sunshine and ground drifting.

It blowed hard. Had to swap out the front blade for the bucket. Did a bucket and dump routine for most of the driveway till I got a path through, then I could finish up with the blower. Drove the truck onto a drift.

Thats what we call in Wyoming " concrete drifts" wind blown snow is unbelievably hard.

Crap, pics are sideways, any way to fix this? On hard drifts like those, my Chinee flip flop blade just don't cut it.
