If 14” is official that would make @pasnownutthe winner with an entry of 13.9”, just edging out @Itstrainingtime(14.2) who wasn’t even in the state. 

Awesome both these guys deserve it. Snownuts is the only member that's always been respectful and kind to me. And  training is the only person here that if I could take back some of the nasty things that i've said in the past I would. Congratulations fellas.

Thanks for the kind words. We’re all in this for similar reasons and I’m glad you enjoy what I share. Last week was great and looks like we keep tracking this week also. Looks like that new gear might be gettin a workout next weekend. Enjoy

Let’s start that northwest shift like we did last storm that wouldn’t stop. image0.jpg?ex=69794702&is=6977f582&hm=d8

As deep as the trough is it might be some kooky solutions in coming days. 
 

it’s just beautiful out. Been outside pretty much last 2 days  helping neighbors n playin with grandpup. My son plowed for 22.5 hrs straight. Started at 430 yesterday morning. Got to our house at 3:00 this mirning(DIL, grandson and grandpup weathered the storm here) 

1hr ride on sleds to end the day today sunset was a beaut in this awesome winter landscape.

Side note, when CTP revised it down to 12.5 for the event, they didn’t revise the month & year to date snow properly. 
Today with the 5 pm summary, the month to date & seasonal snow to date are now all correct.

This is MDT’s first season officially over 20 inches since 2021.

We are now only 10 inches below climo for the season with 2 months still to go to score.

Very beautiful outside, reminds me of my childhood, being pulled in a sled to the local grocery store in 93 and again 96. Glad my two kids can finally enjoy some true winter weather. Kinda sad I hardly get to enjoy it in the moment with them, but I have inspired one hell of a reliable snow shoveler in my teenager. Came home last night after 12 hours of plowing to a completely clear property, a small one, mind you. I brought the plow home, anticipating having to spend 30 minutes to an hour clearing a spot. Instead, all was cleared, salted and wet. Today everything is drying and he is asking to ride along for the next storm. My answer: I need someone in the skid steer lol. Tomorrow marks day two of cleanup/prep for what could be a doozy this weekend. Bring it on home folks!

Kudos to your son for the long shift. Been there, done that. I had just gotten out of the Army prior to the 2016 blizzard. First time every doing snow. Last thing they told me was keep it clear. 3 days later I was asked when the last time I had gone home was. The look on the guys face when I told him, “ about 3 days ago” , was one you might expect to get if you had a unicorn horn sprouted from your forehead region. Long story short, I told him I do what I am told until told otherwise and explained my service background. He was bewildered, yet in awe. Nice paycheck, though lol. About that 20-22 hour mark, you start to question yourself and how got to where you are. Next thing you know, you wake up and have to move more snow! Love it! Those days are over for me. Did 12 Sunday , 8 today and hopefully I can wrap up my cleanup by lunch tomorrow. If I don’t get the loader stuck again haha. I did manage to get out by sheer luck. I was about 2 minutes from grabbing my office manager and a tow strap. Experience hehe
