We got about 8". Appears that this weekend's big storm may track inland & thus be more rain than snow.

Got about 5-6" here. Nice Toy!! Used my neighbors 42" John Deere snowblower!! Wahoo! (He's in FL and lent me the keys!) WOW, almost shot out the second story windows.!

We will be heading East to Danbury, CT on Friday along I-86, I know you guys got more towards Binghamton and back on Sat. Hopefully miss most of it before the next one on Sunday.....got 4 wheel drive.

Wimpy 4" of snow and sleet here.
At least it finally got me to take the mowing deck off of the tractor and install the front blade. Nothing like being prepared. I'll probably put on the chains just in time for spring! :oops:

Not mine. I'm "Storing" it for a buddy who sold some property earlier this year. Cheaper to ship it to me than pay for storage.

Neighbor has a JD with a blower. Amazing how far that thing throws it.

Left the house around 8:00 AM for a trip to Superior Coal Company. Not the best day for a road trip, but no bad, except for the few seconds when it looked like I was going to collect a Ford Explorer hood ornament. The driver decided to hit his brakes on an icy bridge... I don't think he left any part of wither guard rail untouched, I held my course and picked a line I thought he would not be in when I went past. He missed me by less than 3" on his last trip across my bow. :o
