Who all has to dig out this morning?

[B Calm]

Western Indiana was dumped on all through the night. Matter of fact, it's still snowing! Looks like I'll be playing on my Kubota tractor today digging my long driveway out and then my neighbors.

1. mountains of va here, going to be spending next two days digging out

sucks that i went to bed not knowing more snow was coming, so drove my truck to the house so now its stuck until i get the road cleared, whats worse is i cant find replacement shear pins for my snow thrower and cant get out to get more so its going to be by hand.

[B Calm]

2. You need a neighbor like me who enjoys playing on his

garden tractor!

[loli phabay]

5. lol, he would need a tracked bobcat to handle my driveway.

[B Calm]

11. The neighbor down the road had his bobcat stuck,

but he doesn't have tracks on his.

3. Waiting on it here in Western, NY...

Looks like we will get a good portion of the Atlantic storm here in a sizeable portion of New York. Our area is projected in the 7"-10" range overnight with lake enhancement from NW winds through late Sunday morning.

As a snow removal contractor, I welcome the winter wonderland. Keeps the lights on in the homestead.

Good luck everyone, be safe!

4. That green stuff doesn't look too deep in the pic

Shouldn't take more than an hour to clear.

9. It's never too early to plow snow!

[we can do it]

6. Can you come over? I'm sick of the snow and it's not winter yet.

[caraher]

7. Shoveled about 3" at 7 AM

but it's still coming down, so I'm in for a second round for sure

[kwassa]

8. no digging, flurries of snow has changed over to cold, wet drizzle.

suburbs of DC

[walkerbait41]

10. We are going wait until July to dig out

[B Calm]

12. You should have a satellite internet dish on top of your roof. Loads

of fun cleaning the snow off just to be able to have internet. You wouldn't wait for spring.

23. That's what I like.

Just leave it where it falls. My neighbors scrape it down but not all the way so then they get this sheet of ice. Better if it is still packed powder, better traction.

I have 2 neighbors that constantly have boundary disputes. One is a real estate broker who has a tiny half-house between two others. His driveway spans the whole width of his property in the back, about 14 feet. He torn down the neighbor's fence with no discussion because by law the other neighbor was supposed to leave 2 feet between the fence and the prop line. This year real estate guy was all over neighbor B's trash bin because it was 2 inches onto his property (that is where the trash guys leave it).

So it snows 6 inches Saturday. Guess where real estate guy's snow gets plowed to ? Yep. Somehow God put Neighbor B's snow on real estate guy's precious driveway and real estate guy had to move it all into Neighbor B's yard and sidewalk.

13. Not in North Georgia, but we have plenty of cold rain. n/t

[warrprayer]

14. yup

about 2 feet in nw pa.

[Callmecrazy]

16. Anywhere near Erie?

I was born there and still have a lot of family there.

[LWolf]

15. No,

but I AM spending the day cleaning up. Broken water pipes are repaired, septic lines have thawed, back-ups have drained, and I can now do a week's worth of dishes and laundry, scrub the showers, toilets, and tubs, and, finally, take a shower at home.

17. We only got about 4 NEW inches last night.

Didn't receive any mail to day, or the mailman didn't want to slog to the box. I knew that could happen but I flat didn't want to do it this morning. Monday will be time enough. This morning the baking bug bit and I really had a good time. Let the mail wait. They won't send you a notice around here before the carrier's been blocked for at least a week. And then he still has to stomp up to the mailbox. I'm going to play the age card here.

But I love snow and in particular during that season, linemen and guys with plows.

[B Calm]

19. We ended up with 8 inches. I was surprised that our

mailman delivered the mail seeing how we live out in the middle of no where on a gravel road.

[IrishAyes]

21. You're lucky. Mine won't walk 6' through 4" snow. But I got out there and shoveled HIS pathway

to the box this morning. It's really about 7" deep because we already had 3 on the ground.

But that's okay. I'm just thrilled the smooth coat JRT loves the snow. All my worries about 2 such hyper dogs being cooped up all winter were fairly unwarranted. I gave them some old jeans parts to play tug of war with, and they chase each other all around the house, baying almost like hounds. When they run it off, they bark at the door to come in again, and I don't need to worry until next time they whine at the door. In other words, if I let them drive, all's well.

Of course they haven't yet jumped into a snow drift over their heads either! But they might like that too. I'm happy when they're happy.

18. A few inches here (NYC metro area)

Clearing out shouldn't be a problem tomorrow as it's expected to be above the freezing mark.

[Taitertots]

20. Not me, I have a neighbor who is awesome, like you

[ConcernedCanuk]

22. I'll be plowing tomorrow.

Bought myself an old 95 Ford F150 with a plow already on it for $2500 a few months back.

Last winter I could spend DAYS shovelling out after a good storm -

This guy? (F150) 15 minutes for a basic path - an hour for a real nice job.

Well worth the investment imo.

24. Do leaves count?

We have Santa Anas.

[magical thyme]

25. We'll be getting an extra 5-8" tomorrow, on top of the 14+ we already got

That's after it drops to 5-8 below zero tonight (as weather.com and wunderground move into convergence).

Then it's back up to somewhere between 35-40 on Friday, with possible wintry mix turning to light rain. Or not.

26. I did a little bit of shoveling yesterday morning.

Then I gunned my 4 WD through the mountain of snow left by the plow. When I returned from acting like a chauffeur I went to bed for the rest of the day.

Sigh. We are getting another 3 inches tomorrow.

[B Calm]

27. We got another 2 or 3 inches last night added on top of the 8 inches.

Wasn't expecting last nights snow.

[In_The_Wind]

28. I should have backed into my driveway on Saturday afternoon.

I know better. I just wasn't thinking after driving home through the falling snow. The plow came through the first time at 2 AM.

I really should download my camera. I was taking photos through my windshield. The color shots looked like black and white.

I hate driving at night. Pick-up time is midnight. Then I have another 30 mile drive to get back home.
