    I'll take it. I love going snow wheeling. Busting 3'-5' snowdrifts is a Blast.

    I like when we get over 18" of snow. The cars and yuppie SUV's stay home then I head out for a few hours of playing. The last good snow we had I used a full tank of gas just going sideways. I also took 6 people to a home because they were stuck...

    It started snowing here about 15-20 minutes ago, which is considerably later than the scheduled start time. The experts called for about a 4PM arrival.

    We're getting hammered here in Southern MD. I just got home from work and my wife asked me shovel a spot so the dog could do her thing. So I did. The dog did not like the spot I cleaned and walked across the yard and found her own spot:confused: Our dog is old and now that she had to jump to HER spot, she irritated a leg and we'll have to visit the vet. I should have stayed at work!!

    ....DC area prediction 20 to 30 inches....of HEAVY snow and winds.....by tomorrow. Hope the trees hold up. Hate to lose power. Would have to resort to reading and heating by candle lite. But it sure is "PURDY"!

    What city are you in? we got a lot more then that. I wasn't able to make it up my hill. My car seems to get by fine in the snow, until you hit a hill then goodbye traction.

    I shoveled about a foot off the driveway between 6 pm and about 10 pm. Still falling, then turned to ice/sleet. About an inch of that thus far. Worst is yet to hit, THEY SAY~

    Sure look pretty outside, well the three or four feet past the windows that was visible. Thus far the drifts are up to the bottom of the car windows and there is good two feet of snow on the ground and it's still coming down.

    Nice storm! Now go away.

    I live in British Columbia and we've had the mildest winter on record. 7 days until the opening ceremonies for the Winter Olympics and they are literaly trucking snow in to the ski area wher the freestyle and half pipe events will be held. We could use all of what you easterners are getting now. I've shovelled twice this year and neither time more than two inches. Last year it was like four feet. What a difference a year makes.
