    I know you want snow for those trails ZAP. But come on. LOL. You are getting carried away now. Aren't you? You are joking. Right? ZAP?

    Plow is going to be a while out. They are kinda busy. I have the bucket back for the snow though. That will work just fine. Just takes a little longer. They just finished welding a couple of 3/8" grab hooks on it for me. Did a nice job. One on each side. One more to go in the center. They said just bring it back after all the snowing is done. Ummm.....

    Well I now have 1/4" of ice on the ground and it is still coming down heavy! It is going to be a mess in the morning. I actually think I may call off work especially since the tractor incident on my driveway yesterday morning.

    Just got another couple of 2 or 3 more inches since the last report. So we are approaching 6 to 7. I've already cleaned off my driveway 2 more times and then finished off another neighbor. Nows its beer time and warm up time.

    They said if it becomes a true Nor'easter, that snow total per hour is possible.

    I need to try to get the snow blower started but my lungs are still pretty weak out in the cold especially. Don't think I will be able to get it to turn over without going into an asthmatic fit.

    Nor'easter storms are also famous for their destructive winds and high seas. Bad news for our Maine coast

    "Nor'easters can cause severe coastal flooding, coastal erosion, hurricane force winds or blizzard conditions; these conditions are usually accompanied with very heavy rain or snow, depending on when the storm occurs."
    About the worst kind of storm for us to get.
