For what?

Lawn and golf thread? 

I wouldn't mind one of those May blue bombs of yore during leaf out, where jebediah had enough downed trees to supply firewood for the whole year.

Won’t move snow, won’t move forward or won’t move because the engine won’t start?  Those issues become more concerning as you go from former to latter. 

The drive chain keeps falling off. I put it back on this morning, immediately fell off again. I'm done dealing with it for now, I'll just keep at it with shovel and plow.

You don’t have a back up snowblower?

I have a snowblower, worked great this December. Made it 40' yesterday and now won't move lol. It's alright, I'm going to dig out now. Eventually I'll get it.

Getting ready to hit Wa Wa.   Will probably be a mess.  Our son will be working the top of the summit lift from 3-10

Have fun! Should be mint. If you see a beater plow truck on fire from the top, you'll know it's me!

31.8" on 2.27" liquid 

Cocorhas guy up the road from me officially came in with 40.0" at 1800ft.

My plow guy is ignoring all my texts which is pissing me off...lol.

Sorry but he ain't coming, he's stuck somewhere. 

See @kdxkenand @Ginx snewxI'm not the only one!

Top 5 snowfall event lifetime for me.    I wish more people could have enjoyed it

I wish it was in middle of December. Would have been nice to have a pack duration of yore.

Responding to the best met in New England....

He certainly is! I agree, I'm not trying to be a prick, I obviously busted on this one! Always better to plan for the most. Just laziness on my end.

But if you spend any time in here you must have known 2 feet was a legit possibility. 

Well I suppose, but we're weenies and glue rose color glasses to our faces.  Typically final outcomes are close to the NWS map, if not less.

What a Man storm. 

Sure was.

What? 

NWS was 12-18" for my area.

Type of storm where you basically have to stay on it every hour or else.....you get stuck in a truck.

Lol, you guys are funny. I was planning on 14" or so per forecasts, not more than double that.  We never get positive busts, especially in March.

Man, for a board full of weenies I'm surprised to see all the shoddy measurement practices. 

Not expecting by-the-book necessarily, but would it kill some of you to throw out a piece of painted wood or even a cutting board? 

Measuring on decks and driveways?!  You're better than the general public, damnit!

Meh.  I don't report mine or anything, and I'm too lazy to clear every 6.

28.5” and still coming down. 
 

Others in town saying 30+”.   I was doubting at first.  
 

 

Yep. Probably true. It's been consolidating, so 30+ not out of the question with clearing.

Where's the wife? Get her to push while you gun it.

Lol she helped shovel me out once, then said she's all set, went inside, and put on sweatpants with a glass of wine.

You have to actually go old school and have the kids shovel.you out. Why not!!

I have a 1,000 foot driveway lol.

Wut?

I tried to plow out at 7 am, got stuck. Then said screw it I'll work from home, got another 15" by the time I went out again. Now I'm stuck like a bastard at the top of my slippery seal coated driveway. Shoveled out the truck like 4 times already. It's an original gen tundra that overheats when you slam her around. 

I gave up trying to clear. Almost had a mental breakdown lol. Pounding again. 

Realistically how much more will fall? 

3 minutes ago, HoarfrostHubb said:

That seems like a bogus record.  I saw it posted too but find it hard to believe.   If so I’m guessing other storms were over 2 days. 

I have 27".... So maybe not.

Transformer boom

lights out in Ayer 

my part of town anyway. 

Excellent.  Just what we're looking for. 

27" here on grass, 24" on pavement. Compacted depth. Roads a mess. 

Just measured 23" on my driveway, with not clearing since the start.
