ski MRG Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I don't understand that at all. So you just want it to snow and then melt right away? So we're left with a green New Years? Stop, I don't want him to explain his perversion again. It's very disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 sounds like BOX's AFD... Uncertainty and low confidence... When will these guys get this figured out?

MaineJayhawk Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 That's why you should live near the coast. Every storm is way more exciting then the Currier and Ives boring crap the interior gets. I got good wind in Minnesota - where I lived was farm country so it was wide open spaces. Awesome drifting. Here? Not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 If I'm going to bust, I'd rather over-perform. It's a coping mechanism. LOl, I think things are heading in the right direction for us. Hang in there. Just in case though, check your barn for a nice Chestnut collar tie, it'll hold firm when the rope goes taut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up on the coast and got more 20" storms than Kevin has seen in his lifetime. It didn't last long but I was fine with that. I love having the snowstorm followed a week by a screaming southeasterly wind whipped rain with downed trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in case though, check your barn for a nice Chestnut collar tie, it'll hold firm when the rope goes taut. I'll call it "cautious optimism" at thisp point. The collar tie's right next to the snow blower. I'll reach for one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I like the big storm. I want it to stick around for a day or two. Unless it's going to grow into some massive depth I don't need it around. So, the thing is, if it melts right away, it can really ever grow to a massive depth. Quite the paradox.

weatherwiz Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Snowpack can get quite annoying in the sense that if it piles up too high you have no place to put the snow. For example, if we were to start getting some decent snowpack here, probably anything over 1' I would have to basically take the snow and throw it the bushes or into the road...my sidewalks have bushes on the side opposite of the road so I can't throw the snow into my yard unless I chuck it over the bushes.

I just leave it, honestly, I've gotten away with it so far but one day some sucker will fall on my sidewalk, the only thing I clear is the path behind the car and thats it, I just leave everything else.

The problem for me is I live on a main drag and my landlord comes an inspects...plus the police do a check as well. If it isn't cleaned to a certain extent then the landlords get ticketed. Two winters ago I guess my brothers and I didn't do a good enough job so our landlords freaked out, called some service, and sent us the bill, was like $50 or something. That's awesome though you get away with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like living here where the snow that falls in December stays put and forms the base for the snow that falls for the next 3 months. Skiing at all anytime soon?
