In my neck of the woods that is north of Seattle. Weather predicted 6" it's usually 2" but it snowed for almost 40 hrs and we got drifts up to 2.5 ft! This might be small potatoes but here we take the day off!post-12857-0-44700000-1393369832_thumb.jpost-12857-0-85435600-1393369848_thumb.j

I had to take 2 feet of heavy wet snow out of my 500 foot driveway last week and tonight it will get down to -19F so I will have to get up at 4 am and walk up the hill to fill the wood boiler to keep the house warm. We will hit 90 inches snow this next week for the year, and none of it has melted, since the winter has been so cold. Winter used to be fun, now its work. I for one am ready to leave it behind.

Yea the colds taken a toll on me for sure, I don't hand heat well. Owning a quad with a plow makes moving snow "more fun ". Like I said tho most storms either duck down below Rockford and head that way of cut up the sw side of wi and angle north of Madison it's Wierd

Mine either this is the first year we haven't had a fence panel blow across the road in the last 3 years of wind up wards of 60-80 mph but thank god only in bursts!! I've since rebuilt previous builders fence about 50 ft!! I despise pulling post and Crete out of the ground but if you need help I've mastered the art!!
