Thanks, doc. :)

Well, that didn’t last long. It’s only 15 degrees, and my hands were so cold that they hurt. It’s hard to shovel 3 and a half feet of drifting snow in a strong wind.

I like snow, but this is the worst storm that we’ve had since the blizzard of ‘78. We already had 5 inches on the ground from two days ago, too.

Lol, I'd say dang near impossible. Enjoy some hot chocolate and stay indoors... now there's a plan. ;)

I do feel a little silly. :)

Bryan plowed yesterday after he got home from work. It was
snowing lightly all night long, and I mean VERY lightly, so
there was less than an inch of accumulation overnight.

At least he didn’t have to plow again before he went to work.

The weather bannister has 6-7”, which is several days’ worth.

And there is still a tiny amount of snow blowing around in the
air. We call it “re-snowing,” because it’s being blown off the
trees, and not coming out of the sky, which is overcast, but
shining brightly as the Sun is peeking through the clouds at
every opportunity. LOL!

Mr. T managed to make a double pass up the driveway with his new snowblower. Below is our driveway, but from a year ago:

It may be winding down. I hope so:

It looks like you all got hit the worst. I wonder how my BIL and SIL are doing near Worcester.

I bought this super deluxe snowblower a few years ago, and it has served me faithfully!
