According to the report I heard yesterday we are due in southern RI to get 10-12. Unless it's been revised since then. Normally we don't have snow on the ground this long. Which is fine with me. Only problem I'm having is the driveway with the mix of rain and snow has created an small ice rink. The snowblower just clears off the top of the icepack. Oh well, it will melt before we know it.
Here are some before pics just taken.. The snow has settled quite a bit but there's still much there.
Me and Squish started the day with front row seats. And the big girl got stuck in the penalty box till done with the tractor,but it wasn't that bad for her as Mrs loon had a warm hambone to keep her busy. Booms was having a bit of a time with the snow. And this is some guy plowing from the garage out back. Heading over to the garage in a bit to split a bunch of smalls for the big chill tomorrow.
Boom looks like he stepped on a live wire... Great pics. Ain't that snow perty... (I still love it anyway)
And... Snomageddon has begun here with steady snow.. No wind "yet" but it is coming! Brought enough wood in the house to last at least 4 days Wife will live at hospital until the roads and driveway are drivable.. Happy Valentines Day to Sam Adams and me..
Knocked the snow off of the top of cord #5 as I'll be moving the tarp over from cord #4 as that one only has two more days left in it. Moved a little snow to get at it. Never thought I'd be into a fifth cord. It snows, I pile it up, it melts, it snows, I pile it up, it melts ... It's snowing now ...
Has been snowing heavily all afternoon, but not piling up too much. Maybe 1.5' at 5:45PM. Wind always hit's me hard in Northeasters as I have 2 large open fields on the NE side of the house. Not looking forward to the wind tomorrow. The Fireview is eating a lot of cord wood this year.
We did get another 3-4 inches of snow today, here's another windchill map , this is from NOAA, they have us at -49.
Fiberglass poles so I know where to snowblow and to keep plows from hitting things.. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Blazer-I...-Round-Orange-Fiberglass-Rod-381ODM/202498049
Fun day stinny Booms wasn't too long getting back in the house though. Mrs loon is in the garage here somewhere splitting smalls. Emma just hung out back at the house.
raybonz , my daughter is the same, she has to stay overnight at the Brigham too. Been snowing here since about 3pm, gonna be a long 24 hrs. Ran the genny for a few mins, we are good there. Hangin out for now.
Just got in from a call at work. Ok driving with packed snow on the roads. Eerily calm before the tempest. No wind yet. About 3" on the ground. Crap will hit the fan in a few hours.
Guessers say we're gonna have this blizzard almost miss us. It's going east. Still gonna be windy tho and maybe 6-10".
