    It's raining ice pellets here. Got the 8hp snow thrower and the 37 hp Kubota all ready to go for the a.m. festivities. Wish me, and everyone else on the NE of the US luck over night.:picard::headbang:

    I've heard that luck can be defined as when preparation meets opportunity....that's much better than winging it! Stay safe mike bayerl :thumbs:

    NOAA is saying 8-12 for our area, two other sites have us getting 20 plus.

    We put in another two loads of Cherry this morning and the Mahindra is ready to move some white stuff. I have one trail that I'll clear tomorrow morning and then make sure we're set for for any power outages.

    Been really cold and windy here for a few days. Warmed up to 31 now. Ground is cold but not froze. This is setting up to be the perfect storm. Snow should last till early next week then a few days it should be in the mid 40's

    We so seldom get snow storms like you guys are going to get. Be safe. Have fun plowing the snow.

    Just checked the Weather Channel online.
    Seems they don't believe the National Weather service. They're calling 4-8".

    Guess that puts us in the 4-16" range...:rolleyes:

    :picard:

    Either way, we're both off tomorrow.
