Woohoo! I was planning on heading up to Staten Island, NY from my home here in VA tomorrow evening at 2300 hours. Looks like that is a no go now lol.

Enjoy the snow!

Got the tractor ready for snow today: grease, fluids, salt/tow strap/shovel, WD-40 on FEL, and a dusting off...;)

Keep it down there, will ya? Our ground is still green but there are veiled threats of snow on Monday, if you decide to shove it up here :cool:.

While we only had about 3 inches of rain in the past 48 hours at our home the local ski hill about an hours drive away had 94 inches or 7.8 feet on snow in the same 48 hours. Mount Washington on Vancouver Island BC has a base of 520 cm, that's 208 inches or over 17 feet. Some serious snow. I understand they have the most snow of any ski area in the world. Only one lift was working on Friday as there was too much snow to use the rest. Those of you who like to play with real snow :licking: need to get your tractors up there. :laughing: :D

Well I'm taking the day off Monday but my wife just bought me a nice new sport camera that can get wet. Maybe I will try it out in this blizzard to see how well it works

We even got snow today in Alabama. This was the first white Christmas in 25 years for us.

Make that 10" to 15"!!!

Yep they just keep uppin the prediction. Now we have blizzard warnings.

I sure wish I had the hydraulics done for chute rotation / deflector of the blower but I guess I should be happy its home & not at the dealer's being worked on :)

I guess I'm going to find out just hown much of my gravel driveway this thing can really throw.

Looks like they keep changing the forecast for Annapolis Maryland. Early this week they were talking snow, Thursday they say no snow, now they are talking 5-10 inches. Sounds like a good warm up for winter!

Well, we had rain today. But, when it is 65 degrees outside, no chance of snow.

Had to do some digging with the BH the other day. Didn't need the WD 40 or Pam or whatever ... when you're in a t-shirt, no need to worry about chains and salt either.

It has been getting down in the 30's at night, though. Even had some 20's this year.
