You have got to be kidding me!:mad: another 6-10 inches of snow!:eek: I know we in ohio didnt get as much as others in the last storm but it was a complete wight out and it sucked!

I guess all of us in the north are eating our words for pocking fun at the folks down south during that two week freeze they had. :D

The post that was made for those down south to help with cracked blocks was great, I guess this is their chance to make a thread on home remedies for back pain! There are going to be a lot of folks holding shovels for the next few days!

I sure am glad I got a plow for my tractor, at least I dont have to shovel!:D:D

Went snowshoeing up in the mountains above Los Angeles yesterday but then got to go back home and watch the Super Bowl poolside. Was close to 70 degrees.

Send all the snow our way in MN. Snowmobiling is what gets us through our 9 months of winter.

I lived there twice, and I liked that too. What I didn't like was the overcrowded population and the Government, but here I am, living in MD(CA East) but at least I live in a rural area and don't have to even see a neighbor's house unless I want too.

I wish we had a few feet of snow here so I can go play with my snowblower for a change, but it is god damn cold, and no snow.

I live in NE Ohio and what sucks about the snow the most is watching the city workers who should be plowing sitting in a parking lot while you try to plow trough the snow up to your rocker panels when they should be clearing the way.

Re: No More Snow!

Crazy winter weather this year for sure. Was extremely warm for the longest time then turned bitter cold and stayed that way for the most part. We have only about 1/4 of the typical snowfall for the area and its playing havoc with the recreational snowmobiling industry. Personally I don't mind one bit because I have only had to shovel my driveway once and then only about 4".

Now I've really done it. It'll likely snow like a SOB for the rest of the season :eek:

OMG I hate that, or they are just sitting on the shoulder of the highway watching people get stuck!

Re: No More Snow!

As much as I love snow, sometimes it makes me mad.

I watched this happen today. I got this installed right before our last 2' or more blizzard in December. I am installing snow guards and a gutter eventually, but that's doing me NO good now. :mad:

That's a LOT of snow,

Those metal uprights should be parallel to the wood posts! one is resting on my boats rub rail in this picture.

I used a 2x3 to clear the snow a little at a time, from underneath my pole barn's lean too :eek: The things we do for our boats. The carport leaned back towards upright, and it's off my boat for now.

Of course, with the now 12-18" they are calling for, I will have more stress in my life!

This is not like MD at all!

Another possible 18" coming here tonight and tomorrow. I do not have a snowblower. Kill me.

Try 24", that's what they are saying on the local news :eek: I really hope my boatport holds up, it's already leaning over, and I almost buried myself in an avalanche cleaning it off.

Re: No More Snow!

We have had hardly any snow. I've only started the snow blower once, and that was just to ensure it was running okay.
Hopefully all we'll get the rest of the winter is the cold, I don't mind that just bundle up.
