Snow Pictures

We got about 3" at the most . I plowed though, so all was not lost.

Steve, you got 3" more than we did! With the rain yesterday and overnight we're down to MAYBE 2" on the ground, with lots of bare spots.

5 years here and what do you know, we actually have a couple of hills good for sledding (first time we really had any good snow).

Nephews came up to visit late today from Charlotte (over night visit), and the first thing they did when they got out of the van was take their sled out and run behind the house!

Have a light down back and I'm going to take them night sledding

Yesterday we got about 4", and I'm becoming a dang southerner because I didn't even have a gameplan to clean off the cars.

Looks like you have a great hill for the kids to go sliding on. We have 600ac of farm land around us and not a good sled hill in sight. My kids would slide down the hill into our shop maybe a whopping 80' ride.

Havent had more than an inch of snow yet. still waiting to get the Yanmar out of the garage. I did ask for a new implement for christmas though. A middle buster. It is small enough to bring in the house and wrap. I guess if i see a big box, it will probably be mine.

Here's a little collection of pictures and snow. We have actually lost a great deal of snow cover over the last couple of days. It was 37 degrees here in southern MN on Christmas day. And it was raining. I'm sure it has happened before, but I have lived here all my life and never remember it raining on Christmas. The warm weather sure cleaned off all the snow on my steel roofed garage in a hurry. I probably had 2-3 feet of snow drifted up on the south side of the garage. The warm weather combined with the rain, sent the whole mass sliding down the roof all at once. Not sure what the mass weighed, but the gas flue (double wall pipe) for my hanging garage furnace didn't slow it down. It folded it right over at the roof line. Took the storm collar and cap right off with it. So no heat in the garage this winter. Oh well, spring is only 3 months away.

I put a metal roof on three years ago, only downfall is that I have to shovel the roof as well as the walkways. As soon as it milds up enough the snow slides perfectly back on the walkway. The first couple of snow slides in the middle of the night were freaky until you realize whats going on.

So........that's why you put a wing on your tractor. To make it easier to get the tractor up on the roof!

I prefer hardwood trees, but in the winter it is hard to beat pines.

We got an inch. It was gone in a few hours....It only stuck to the roof, grass, and the trailers.

Well, our long-talked-about storm by all the weathermen finally arrived! White Christmas in Oklahoma. Set a new record on amount in 24 hr period. I think we got 8-9 inches (I know, I know "that ain't nothin'" to all you Northerners) but it's a bunch to us Okies! I really don't know how they can tell the accumalation amount when it comes "down" with a wind of 50-60 mph! My wife wondered "out loud" why there was no snow in the trees! Blew right on out on it's way to Texas! Anyway, the white Christmas was nice but feeding twice a day and breaking ice on the ponds is another thing. A few pics below.

it may snow here tonight, but in the mean time, everything is frozen. Atleast we got a beautiful Oregon sunrise this morning.

Hey Jacob. Very nice morning pics!

We also got nice night pictures. Got 5-6" dumped on us in a few hours. It was time to pull my Yanmar out of the garage. I put a shovel on the ROPS with bungee cords, topped it off with Diesel, and went to work for an hour and a half. The only issues were that since the snow was so wet, it was hard to pull with the rear blade and when I tried to push it further to the sides, the snow would make the Yanmar crab walk. I did use the 4wd and I decided that I need to get some chains for my front tires. It took all the tractor had in high 4wd to get up the driveway. Atleast It is plowed so we can get my moms car up the drivway easily. I am very glad I had calcium in my back tires.

We are finally getting our winter. Two fronts will move through - weaker one tonight, Stronger one all day tomorrow. Just finished lane and there is 8" down and still snowing.

My prediction is 2+ feet if this keeps up. The snow is light but tomorrow's will be heavy - from forecast.
