Freezing rain / ice overnight is the big concern down here. Snow totals were underwhelming even if we get more tomorrow afternoon.
edit: not even midnight and you can see from the street lights everything has a glistening ice sheen already. Didn't realize they raised the projections

I just had to clear a path out back because the dogs couldn't push open the dog door. I just saw something 12 inches and white. There may be hope for us yet.

We have this wind-driven shit. I literally have a 3 foot snow drift on one side of my car and i can almost see the grass on the other side of the car.

The Shepherd was belly deep running around. The little mutt was like a dolphin, jumping out of the snow and then disappearing only to jump again.

It snows just infrequently enough here on LI, that everytime it does I forget from the last time how much of a workout it is shoveling the shit. And I dont have a snowblower because of that infrequently word I said previously.

The size perspective can really fool you too, the snow by itself doesnt loook too bad, then you get out in it and you realize, that little lump of snow you need to brush off in a minute is actually a few feet and you`re already out of your depth. My car is covered as if i didnt do a damned thing out there.

Was at 28" this at 6am. Up to 35" now as of 2pm. Snow is supposed to continue on and off until tomorrow afternoon.
Have not had this much snow in a single storm since the 2007 Valentine's Day Blizzard. Was so heavy, that with the wind, it froze the auger on my blower. Had to take a bucket of coals from the stove and dig a pit, then park it on top for a few minutes.
Getting too damn old for this shit. Each storm makes me consider moving to Tennessee or the Carolinas more.

got the snow off the ragtop again, this time it was easier. it warmed up so everything slid right off the other side. when i backed out, it left a car sized crater. i hope it doesnt do this shit again on sunday to monday. we need time to melt this shit.

That face you make when the wife asks you why you are going out to shovel the driveway because her jeep wrangler with the lift kit had no problems getting out and you drive a BMW...
