SNOW SNOW SNOW! I forgot about the snow build up under the wipers. Anyone know a way to get that to stop? Is there an after market "defroster" (like a rear defrost on a car) we can tape in the bottom of the windshield for the season?

You guys can keep that white sheet...I'm down in Southern Arizona for the winter, being a snowbird with my truck and travel trailer...The sun is shining, it's supposed to get up to 75 here today, not a cloud in the sky... Time to head out to the lounge chair outside with a nice cold beer..

Looks like you kept it all to your self. We got a light dusting about three hours ago. So far so good.

Been out in the snow all day. My plow tractor (old Wheel Horse) has functioned flawlessly all summer and throughout the fall. Don't you know if it didn't ice up somewhere in the tranny. Never had that happen before. It sits outside most of the time and some water must have trickled in around the shifter opening. Put a heater on if for a couple of hours and I was good to go until the main drive belt started slipping. Off to the store to pick up a new one and deliver a snowblower I took in on an emergency service call while the tractor was thawing out.
Used a little Toro power broom for the first clearing of the drive. Then ended up using the customer's blower to take off the next 6 inches before I returned it to him. Had to test it out and make sure it would do what it is supposed to before I took it back to him.
Finally the old 'horse was up and running and I plowed the drive again.
It got dark before I could measure the snow, but it is easily over 18" at my place and it is still snowing.
Roads were filling right back up after the plow went through and were thoroughly snow covered. The PSD waded through that stuff in 4wd no problem.
A beautiful day!
