Awww, Tex c'mon. I'm not complaining, I got nowhere to go and nothing to do. I'd probably start into the adult beverages, except I have to plow my driveway, moms, 1 sister and 1 brother. Oh and the father in law. 5 driveways including mine, at my leisure! Just sittin' here drinking coffee, watching the snow fall. Awesome!

This is the second storm with big accumulation this season, last one I think we only had a total of 14". We're already past that with more coming. I feel for ya buddy, I work outside too, but I run heavy equiptment so it sucks a little bit but at least I have a cab. I've been running a Cat 345 excavator for the last few months. Be careful up there!

My blood is too thin to handle all that though. Snow from this past weekend finally melted to where there is nothing left on Friday. Tuesday only two of the vehicles that we have could actually get off the farm(thankfully ESOF didn't let me down this past weekend). There was threat of more snow here, but apparently I just need hip waders to get out to the barn. Arena is flooded so I can't give lessons or do anything with the horses, it's just nasty out.

South Jersey near Woodstown we have 24 in on open level ground and drifts to 4 feet and more. Still snowing heavily at 2pm. My F250 is amazing just rolled right out the driveway with hardly any effort. Roads are not terrible around here but messy where the open fields drift over them. Wind about 25 mph out of the North. Other than in the really deep snow don't even need the 4 wheel drive. Great Truck

Didn't think of that! We're supposed to get around another 12 in Tue into Wed. I'll get some then. My plow is giving me fits, it angles fine to the right but won't angle at all to the left. Its just stuck there. Maybe solenoid, maybe ice in the fluid, I dunno. Makes it a bit challenging, especially with all that snow.

Here's one of ours Mark. All in all, we ended up with about 15-16 inches. It had melted off some by the time I got to snap a few shots.
