Re: F...Snow
I feel for you guys. Thankfully the storm is missing my area. Stay safe.

Re: F...Snow
Easily have doubled the snow total from yesterday.

Re: F...Snow
We're up to 18 inches in Woodbridge. I just spent 3 hours shoveling and I was only able to dig out my car, I haven't even done the rest of the driveway yet (about another car length). It started coming down harder so I'm going to go back at it tomorrow and hopefully have it clear by Monday. Luckily it's very fine so far, my worst case scenario is it turning to sleet/ice and having everything frozen tomorrow.

Rite. Once that shit freezes good luck. I always park as close to the end of my driveway as possible. Just have to dig through the plow bullshit. Done. Dont look like the temperature is going to help melt the snow anytime soon. |
Re: F...Snow
Have about 2.5 feet. We rescued a feral cat hoping through the backyard. Have it in the powder room till we can take it to the shelter probably tomorrow. Looking forward to shoveling for a few hours tomorrow. I have always enjoyed shoveling snow it is one of the most enjoyable workouts in the world.

Re: F...Snow
Getting ready to go out and start shoveling now ,I just need to get the cars out so we can head to work on Tuesday.Charles County Maryland at least where I am got about 24-30 inches.Only working till noon then the fire in the fire place and the TV goes on.

Re: F...Snow
I couldn't imagine having 20 inches...got little over a foot of snow with probably a half inch of sleet. Need to get the car out the driveway sometime today. They are 2 abandon cars within sight of my house. Who drives a Chevy Malibu on unplowed foot of snow roads?

Re: F...Snow
Got out this morning at 9 am and shoveled out three of my neighbors walk ways and one of their cars. My goal is after lunch to get to Liberty for some snowboarding with my little ones. If not sledding hill it is.

Yeah. She was questioning her decision last night because she got scratched, but I said what is better get a few shots the next day at the doctors or have our kids find a dead cat in the backyard? Besides that has to be some huge karma points right? |
Re: F...Snow
Grindin gears: shoveling the driveway. Fuck snow
|
Re: F...Snow
i don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so i did half of it today and kinda stopped. hopefully the sun will help me out some.
|
Re: F...Snow
We got easily 3 feet. Drifts higher. Stayed ahead on Friday then Saturday I cleared 6-8 inches 3 times so the dog could not use the house as a rest room. FInished the last of it earlier this morning. Neighborhood private streets are fine. Main road near me is a lane and a half, side streets untouched. Figure kids won't see a school until Friday at the earliest, if not later depending on how well they can get to the mountain roads. Hoping they finish the main roads today and start working on the side roads tomorrow.
Don't have anywhere to go, so I'll keep the vehicles parked and enjoy the cabin fever. |
Re: F...Snow
I had to go back to work yesterday, mfers were sending out emails "we need as many people here as possible." I go in and they barely had room in the employee lot for 10 cars. Today was "all dealers are fully open" and again they barely had enough room for employee cars. All they're worried about is having employees there, they are doing a piss poor job of managing logistics. The employee lot is a quarter mile from my dealer and the sidewalks weren't cleared so we have to walk in the street while cars go by at 45 mph. The only bright spot is the literal bright spot created by the sun that is melting the snow at a decent rate. When I got to work this morning the employee lot was still iced over from the runoff yesterday though.

Re: F...Snow
my parking spot for my townhouse neighborhood is the very last one on the end. exactly where the plows decided to pile up a mountain of snow. the car next me hasnt moved in a month so i cant try to angle out either. also a huge pine tree conveniently blocks the sun from melting this monsterous mountain of snow.
i will be "carpooling" for 2 weeks. |
Re: F...Snow
We wound up getting more ice than snow. Luckily the power didn't go out, but I was home from work for a couple days.
|
Re: F...Snow
we're dug out here now, really a pretty ho hum for a blizzard, which is a good thing. someone brought out a bobcat (mini bulldozer) and well, it did some work.

Re: F...Snow
So when's the next snow storm?

Re: F...Snow
I'm not sure when the next snow is but I will be trying this out before I break out the shovel again:

[quote=mooby;1138487]I'm not sure when the next snow is but I will be trying this out before I break out the shovel again:
[YT]DoYwONgJxmI[/YT][/quote] that's cool, but i doubt it works if there's ice on the bottom and i'm not sure it'd work super well on asphalt either, or when you have to deposit the roll on top of the 6 ft pile when you're done rolling it. still, i'll give it a go next time out. |

Lolololo. Kids finding the dead cat is definitely not good! Bigtime karma. |

Re: F...Snow

Re: F...Snow
Happy snow day here in NY. Stella dropping 12-18 today. Working on my 2nd pot of coffee and doing a whole lot of nothing.

Re: F...Snow
Stay safe and warm!

Re: F...Snow
Man, so jealous. Was hoping we'd get ONE snow day this year, so I hedged my bets that we would. Made a few too many Moscow Mules.

Re: F...Snow
In Charles County here in Maryland was mostly ice and rain,roads are pretty clear but the black ice tonight and tomorrow will be a bitch.

How much did you get? We had a literal dusting. Snow is actually mostly gone now. |
Re: F...Snow
Got my first snow day as essential personnel for Fairfax County today, however the government center was open so I didn't get any extra OT/comp time out of it, even though I had to be at work at 7 this morning when it was coming down heavy and the roads were icy. We got a couple inches on the 95 side, but it kept switching to sleet and icy rain.
