Re: Snow?
Plowed about 4" of heavy wet snow this morning and supposed to get another 3-5" tonight that I'll take care of in the morning. Need to put the chains on though.
No pictures this morning - will take some in the morning.
Ground is not frozen solid, so had to be careful not to dig into the lawn.

Re: Snow?
They were predicting up to 12", we got 1" and it's already melted off the streets and walks.

Re: Snow?
I was able to plow the 14" we got midweek. Then we had 30-40 mph winds all day Friday. Our road didn't drift much, but the neighbor's was so bad that I couldn't do anything with my Cub. Another neighbor came by with a big JD with a rear blade and couldn't break through the frozen drifts either. He finally came back with a skidster with a front bucket and spent about 90 minutes clearing a narrow track to their house. I was able to walk across the top of 3-4' drifts without breaking through and told my wife that this were her chance to make an igloo. She passed on it....

Re: Snow?
18" in Berkshire hills. Cub had no problem plowing light fresh snow. Started up with no issues after 45 minutes of oil pan & water intake line heating, battery maintainer going as always. Later, with Cub tucked back in the barn, on cross country skis, it was tough going making a trail in fresh deep snow...a trail that'll be better tomorrow and even better the day after that. Followed a line of coyote (probably) footprints.

Re: Snow?

...and add this for this mornings new snow: +8" more or less. That's a pretty good +2' snow fall.
The Cub wanted to start up but there was a frozen gas line--why do they sell us water? A touch or two of the heat gun and my usual heating systems and I was ready to get to it.
