Don McLean and I just finished shoveling fourteen inches of partly cloudy from our driveways and side walks.

The big snow is coming this weekend, My friend Star Mopar gave me his old snow blower. Time to fuel up the snow blower, test run, after rebuilding the starter./b]

Nice here today now, but it's coming.
Built braces to support out 'Pergola' today...Just in case. To be measured in feet of snow.

Rick sends this pic from 2003:
Let’s hope it’s not that bad this time around, Rick!

Dan, Thank You, If it wasn't for wind our roofs would have collapsed. I lucked out that snow storm, My friend was a contractor and left his 20 yard dump truck and Bob Cat skid steer in my back yard. I utilized them both to dig out, and my neighbors driveways after the city plowed us in. I had his equipment for a week. I worked nights repairing snow removal equipment for another city. I borrowed my spouses W350 to get to work, being my friend had my W250 extra to get home 40 miles east of here, where conditions were worse.

Only a few inches and people are abandoning their cars on the street. It is windy, with poor visibility. Static electricity makes snow cling on our windows. Thanks to vertical opening garage door, I was able to dig out front and back doors, back door will need it again in the morning.
