Another foot or so Yet. at least 24 more Hours

[jeff of pa]

While walking back up here, the neighbor peaked his head out and Offered to Shovel for me.
But as I told him, 6 Hours from now you won't be able to Tell.

Even the Plows aren't going yet.

apparently he likes shoveling more then I do, so if it gets too much,
at least I know a BACK-UP

I find that it is much easier for me to shovel a little bit at a time rather than waiting for it all to fall. But I also do mine by hand and have a fairly small driveway. I would rather shovel 3" x 4 than 12" x 1. I can "push" 3". I can't "push" 12" by hand which means I'm scooping/lifting it which is way more work.

Yea I used to do that at Home on top of the Mountain.

these days

This is my Parking Spot Choice
the blue one Closest





where the white car is in this pic.

The South & East sides are Grass

So I Just need to Shovel To my Right as I walk around the car
don't even need to do the front really except to clean up.

the nw corner between the mini-van and my car I need to shovel and walk.
even when i back out first.
when the snow is wet and heavy.it will be a chore.
I Broke my Push Shovel awhile Back. Just have a Chepo Snow Shovel Now.
no big scoops, lotta smaller ones

My driveway runs 130' from the house, and 90' from the
garage (there's also a center island) and all of it on a grade.

Just a foot of snow here ain't too bad..it's the heavy late winter
snows in Feb. and March that really pile up in a hurry. Learned
to just park the car at the top of the driveway before it's buried,
and then no need to shovel the driveway. ...

...at least not til the plow comes by and leaves a mountain of snow
at the edge of the driveway. That heavy plowed crap is the worst to
have to shovel.

 

[jeff of pa]

had that issue for years.

yea the plows pack is almost like cement

I had my taste of those heartland storms last week in going to Iowa. Well stay warm. Man its gonna be in the 60s here today the Colorado front range.

 

[jeff of pa]

I Probably have 60 Inside

I Just Measured 11 Inches beside my car where wind is somewhat blocked.

10 inches on the Trunk Lid

So with the 20 to 39 mph winds probably 10 1/2" here

not looking Promising here

We're getting a taste of it today and into Wed. Nothing really to worry about as the post up a weather advisory shows 7-14cm, but any snow flake seems to bring out an advisory now a days.

7 yrs ago ATV and the tractor snow blower, and then a used walk behind snowblower. Then 2 yrs ago I bought a plow for the truck, having 300' of back lane, yard of 100 x 40', then the area between garage and barn. The shop yard and the sugar bush trails it's comfort to have the 4x4/heat/radio and time saved. What use to take 3-4 hrs of sitting out in the elements can be done now in comfort in a little over a hour.
