2"-4" for us (I'm further west then you are), but it'll depend on how the storms track.
Looks like our New England friends will get the brunt of it though.
Looks like we're slightly north of the main event, but the predicted snowfall amount is creeping up... now @ 6-10" for Grafton county...
I know the kids at school are hoping for a snow day!:laughing:
Looks like Boston & NYC will get hammered!

yep. calling for 2-4" here. John Deere is fueled up and waiting. I have the 3pt. woodsplitter on now, so not a lot of weight there. The tires are worn pretty good. If we get too much I will put the backhoe back on and that gives it a good amount of weight. It also has got me out of some very deep snow before when the loader just wouldn't push me back out ver easy.
Let it snow. I got the day off and will make a pot of chili.

Send it up here, we need the stuff for our snowmobiles and ski mountains, well they make their own, but doesn't hurt to get skiers and their money up here too......

The ski areas prefer the free stuff..........
Sure, they prefer the free stuff but, it doesn't always come. Therefore, the snowmakers get busy.
Up at Sugarloaf they have covered miles and miles and miles of trails with the expensive stuff.:thumbsup:
Works for me.

IIRC, one ski area operator told me that the best snow for their industry is the snow that happens in peoples backyard to get them psyched about skiing....That brings them in....
Well, it's official here in west central NH... storm tracked a bit north, we're now in the 10-18" range, most if not all schools now closed. So far we've got a good 4", but it's real fine-grained and dense, just the type that's like grease on pavement....
Looks like the GC will have some work to do!

13 inches plus here in Farmington CT and still snowing. Tractor fun this afternoon when the storm clears out
We now have about a foot, shows no signs of slowing down. It is, as I suspected, quite heavy snow, considering that it's dry. The blower's not bogging down, exactly, but it's plain to see that it's having to work at it.
I'm hitting the driveway now, but know I'll get to do it again later!

We are getting it in central Maine right now.
At the moment we have visibility of about 150 yards.!!
Lots of heavy bands moving through. We are expected to get 6 to 10 inches. More along the coast.
I just hope we get enough to use the blower....I use the rear blade up to about 5".....more than that.....the Frontier blower goes to work. I love that thing.

Same here. We have close to 3" now, so I don't think 6" will be hard to hit. Wind is straight out of the NE.

Also posted on Snow weapons thread, we have at least 24" and still snowing, expect it to stop soon. Did give the tractor a good workout, will have to rethink a cab purchase:laughing: tractor did great, some spots over the top of the blower. All in all some GREAT seat time:thumbsup:
