Welp, the weather man botched this one!
Both local and natl weather service forecasted no more than 4-6" thru the weekend. We had that by yesterday with an additional 17" today. I knocked it down at 4am before heading to work, kids stayed home today so my oldest went out and cleared everything early this afternoon and again after chores.

Seems to me that SOMEBODY warned the folks in the NE about the coming storm named Sandy. He received all kinds of comments about how they have done this before WE KNOW WHAT WE'ER DOING!!! Surprise!!!!



Mother Nature has all the A's in her hand, might should auda feel fortunate that she spared you.

I did notice the smarter ones moved back before the train hit the snow. The stupid ones, well they deserved to learn the valuable lesson....

Got 14"-16" of this crap, it decided that it had to rain at the very end of it. So the augers on my snowblower immediately filled with snow rendering it pretty much useless yesterday morning. It is a 33" and when the augers fill with wet sticky snow you can just about move the damn thing. Opened what we could to get the vehicles out.
Put snowblower back in garage to thaw out. Got home last night and the water had worked it's way to the ground so that the snowblower could handle it.

Worst storm to clean up after in quite a while.......

Indeed. We didn't get near the accumulation we were suppose to, but the liquid and snap freeze made it very difficult.*

Extreme North Eastern corner of Ohio. These types of accumulations are fairly common in the beginning of winter until the Lake freezes over but with the mild winter we've had it is still mostly open so any storm out of the north/north west has potential for some good Lake Effect.
