Ready for snow?

We don't get near the lake effect here as we did just northeast of here but it does happen. The bulk of the system snow stayed south but the lake effect hit overnight. By this morning it was just east of us so I got some playtime. Maybe 6" and very light. The county pulled the plows off the roads last night but got them out there this morning. I got most of the drive done but the plow hasn't made a pass yet. I didn't bother doing much at the end of the drive. I came in to unfreeze my fingers and will wait on the plow before I go back out. I thought about getting some of those one use heat thingys to slip in my mittens and I'm thinking about it again. But I still don't have any. :wacko:

Still snowing here since early Sunday morning.  Cleared driveway & already 2" accumulated.  Gave the 702 quite a workout. Snow was pretty light yet still almost a foot deep so it did a pretty good job. 

 

Took today off so I had time to play on tractor instead of using Toro 2stage walk behind.....thats not as fun🤪

We got about 18” with drifts 2-3’.  I’ve had the blower attachment for years, but most of our storms are ink the 6” range so never really had to use it.  The beginning of this season however, I said what the heck, and put it on the 416-8.  Well I am sure glad I did, that single stage on a 16hp Onan throws the snow unbelievably far.  I probably could have done everything with the blade, but my driveway would have been 33% narrower.  Had so much fun, I helped my neighbor too.

I woke up this morning to the sound of my neighbor firing up his Kubota.    All the driveways were packed tight with 3-4 feet of snow from PENNDOTS plowing.

He used the Kubota with the FEL to remove the packed snow so I could get in with the 520H to plow the driveways.    We just finished all seven driveways.

We had about 10 inches of snow then several hours of sleet creating one of the heaviest snows I had to plow.
