Who's getting snow.....   Sterling MA we have 2.5 inches as of 08:50 Hrs and it's coming down to beat the band. All we need is some wind from the N.E. and it would be coming down at over an inch an hour.....  Come on 4" I want to PLOW !!!   Just p/u a new 8' Land Pride 3pt blade and want to burn down the cutting edge.
  Oh yeah !!  Hoilday plowing pays double.   Could get an early Christmas present !!!

We have about 2" with more on the way. I guess we are going to get down in the low 20's later today.

I would love to stay home and hug the wood stove but have to go out and drive in it I guess! :(

I wish " familys" could just stay home with "familys" and not have to travel around on holidays.

The only hoilday I get to stay home on is new years! Go figure?

old3dogg

Oh yea!

We are getting high winds also!!!

thedeeredude

We had about an inch of snow and high gusts.  But we don't have the coal stove going yet :(  Just, cough, e-l-e-c-t-r-i-c heat running.

1/2" of snow here and quite warm 8) but real still out now.

And Jeff is driving to Chet's.

It's a good thing he is travelling in the "South", eh?   :D

Looking at the radar pic the roads shouldn't be too bad along the U.P.'s southern shore.  The worst roads'll be south of Da Bridge

We got about 4" at the house and the airport, only about 2.5" down at the office according to the staff when they called (all of them on the speakerphone at once) to wish me a happy birthday this morning.

I decided if the health thing is gonna keep me up here in da snow this winter I'm gonna play in it some.

I put a 9.5' V-plow on my truck ......  8)

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snowwwwwwww .........  smiley_bouncing

Jeff, that was probably an adventure trip to Chet's. Big Mac must have been open for a timely crossing. Drive easy on the return, weather not good here today.

Hopefully you brought sleeping bags and extra underwear for a possible stay on the road if weather doesn't change. ;)

Supposed to be close to 40 on Sunday and mid forties and rain on Monday.  I'm not gonna cleanup any snow either.  It'll melt one more time ;D

I'll take the sunshine if I can get it though, since june 14th was are last day of snow last season.

We got about 3 inches of snow here in Coastal Maine...perfect ;D

I managed to get 75 miles on my new snowmobile so I am definately happy.  The temp kept changing from 20-34 degrees so it would rain one minute, sleet the next then snow. Heck we even had lightning and thunder at about 1500 today.

Boy I keep seeing all this snow i'm gunna have to ask son to turn this AC OFF :D :D :D
