Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Snow Is Coming!!!

[Jerry/MT]

Well, we have had a few late winter/early spring snow events over the years...can't really say I'm looking for a 20" snowfall though.
I think this area may have water problems this year resulting from the lack of snowfall though.

I'm with Roy. I haven't taken the blower off the Ford 4610 yet. Our cows are due to start calving in the next two weeks so it'll be a prime time for big snow dump!

Well, reporting from the foothills of the Rockies here in Colorado:

We've had record-tying weather here for the whole week. Every day above 70 degrees (tied a record for the date on Tues: 74 degrees).

There really hasn't been enough snow here, so yesterday eve I watered trees, bulbs (which are coming up already: tulips, daffodils, crocus, siberian iris, etc.), bushes, and anything else I could think of for about two hours. The trees are already "budding out", so we pretty much know what that means this time of year in Colorado: we'll get a real wet heavy snowstorm and there's going to be a lot of cracked limbs... sometimes kills the whole tree.

I believe March and April are our snowiest months here (on average), so I gotta believe there's more to come. In the meantime, the wife got inspired and planted a lot of starter seeds in little peat pots. :thumbsup:

Well...unfortunately, with the temps going into the upper 70's, I think the snow season is over...

Yea but MOTORCYCLE season is here

And you still will have grass to cut more likely sooner than later!

Greg,
Unheard of here, I never put the plow or chains on this winter! I'm worried my apple trees will bud early and we'll get a frost... no apples after that. Too hot too soon, don't get me wrong, I love spring but this is scary.
