There are 11,000 customers in Colorado who have been without power for two weeks. Reports are they are getting grumpy about it.
That is the plan for next year. Cab tractor and a snow blower. I've been clearing the driveway to 10' wide for two days and have one more day of work to go. The first day was spent clearing a path my pickup could get through so I could get more fuel. I have 3 ft. high snow berms on either side of the driveway, If I get another storm like the one Wednesday-Thursday and it fills in between the snow berms the only way in or out will be by helicopter. Going to keep the diesel cans full if another storm comes.my current blower moves it 40+ feet away. Never run out op places to push it. Have over 24” sticking, 2 more today and there predicting heavy 8-12” overnight….but ill wait to see that. There wrong so many times.
Holy moly, that's a lot of rain. Is Bucoda underwater yet?Official rain total for our neighborhood, 10 inches in 24 hours! I knew we had a lot but that explains the creeks running through the front and back pastures here.
Translate that kind of rain to snow, it's no wonder all the passes are closed. With I-5 closed there aren't to many ways out. If this were an old disaster movie, now would be the time to cue the Cascadia fault earthquake and tsunami.Official rain total for our neighborhood, 10 inches in 24 hours!

Be careful . . .Beautiful blue sky today and 54 degrees outside. Taking the opportunity to clean the chimney.
