I HATE SNOW

[cuznjohn]

today the sun is out, but with the wind we are having, it can blow you over

 

[Bob Denman]

Ain't that the truth!
They're threatening us with some gusts up near 60 mph, and the normal winds should be flying by at about 35 mph...

I think that I threw the same chunk of snow FOUR times this morning! :shocked:

 

[Deanna777]

We ended up with about six inches of snow on the ground, a couple of inches of sleet and freezing raib, and then two more inches of snow! :gaah:
Heavy, miserable, and tough to remove... :cus:

I got a total of 6 inches of snow( light, fluffy) from the storm. This afternoon the wind will start. In Montpelier( the capital ) got about 12 inches of snow. This week Wed. or Thursday an other snow storm, I hope we don't get to much more snow.

Yea, I know it is good for the ski areas. Especially going into this week-end( presidents week)It is a long week-end. Deanna

We got about 12" of the white crap up here. They say that another 8" is possible for later in the week. I really hope they are wrong. I am sick of the stuff.

At least we are not in the east coast. Nova Scotia got 2' and still have blizzard conditions with another 2' expected later this week. Yuuuk!!!!!

We may be starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel...
It seems that the temperatures will rise back into the forties on Saturday, and stay there for a while! :yes::yes::yes:

No snow for us. We just got the 60 MPH winds with a little rain.

This has been the worst winter for snowmobiling EVER!!! Even the great UP didn't get their usual snowfall.

The trails should look like this, not be all dirt and mud.:gaah:



On the bright side, it might get into the low sixties Saturday. Screw the sleds, it time for a Spyder ride.

As long as it has a seat, engine and handlebars: you're good to go! :thumbup:

If you are having trouble removing that wet snow, this baby should do it.

It's called the 'Snow Wolf' and they have one at the Gerald R. Ford International airport.

Sorry to hear. Been a good year out this way and it's not over yet.

I agree! Deanna

Three or four days of high thirties on the way. Rain is also forecast. Hoping it takes care of the standing snow. :bbq::bbq::bbq:
