North east snow storm!

We are supposed to get 10-15" of snow in my area, just got 6 on sat night and Sunday. Thank GOD, the weather decided to hold off with this schiff until we got in the new house! Am going out to start moving snow to make sure I have room for the fresh stuff and get it as close to drainage as I can so its got a head start to leaving in the spring time,(middle of June). Will see if I can get pics and or video of the action! Hope everyone getting snow has fun and stays safe!

This is the beginning of storm. Our school was closed as of 6pm last night, and the wife's boss lady called her this morning from the office and told her to stay home, she was just going to grab her laptop and they can work from home. Just seen the snowplow for first time since about 4am when they were out salting the roads. Sorry for sideways photo, if a mod can rotate it I would appreciate it greatly!

I got about a foot. My hydrolic lift pump crapped out on me, the return spring busted and broke a grear. Was idling as I jumped off to move something and I heard a pop and blade dropped

Seven inches here (halfway between Dirty Steve and Johns Cubs) in Horseheads NY. It took about an hour to plow out all my driveway then I loaded up the 2072 on the trailer and spent another 45 minutes over at my daughters house doing her driveway and sidewalks. If it weren't so cold, the seat time would have been more fun. The 2072 ran flawlessly as always. It's amazing what that tractor will push!

You guys keep that mess up there! Not to hurt feelings but I fired up the 149 with the tiller and worked the leaves and straw in yesterday. I will plant onions and peas next week.

twoton 02-07-2018 08:02 PM

All rain here and 52 degrees now.:beerchug:

Jeff in Pa 02-07-2018 08:25 PM

We had about 3 or 4" of snow before it started raining here ( south of Allentown PA )

I used the 125 with the QA-42 and it actually threw the shlush pretty good. Only about 10' but that got it off the driveway so it won't freeze tonight.

This thing pushes like a beast too! Looks like I might have lucked out with storm being over as my pump broke. Attachment 90828
Any one know of a parts source for the gears? The roll pin that holds gear on shaft broke too. So i am on the hunt for parts before the next one!

Well, they are predicting another one, for Wednesday night,,,

"...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 8 AM
EDT THURSDAY...

* WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 3 to 6
inches, with localized amounts of 10 to 12 inches possible
across the higher elevations of southeast West Virginia near the
Virginia line and especially across the Greenbrier Valley.

* WHERE...Portions of southwest and west central Virginia,
northwest North Carolina, and southeast West Virginia,
principally along and west of the Blue Ridge from Lexington
Virginia, to Roanoke Virginia, to Hillsville Virginia, to Boone,

They said this will possibly be the heaviest late March snow accumulation on record,,,:bigthink:

That's why I have two 125's. One is snow duty and the other lawn and garden. The one closest to the overhead door is "season correct".

Lst night the weather guy said "depending on which computer simulation you look at, it could be anywhere from 1-1/2" to 15" :BB&YS:

This morning was 4-8" forecast and on the way home was upped to 6-12" :bash2:

Happy Spring :beer2:

But just remember .......

Alvy 03-20-2018 09:05 PM

Always remember to clamp your ham and spring is around the corner......got it translated for them Jeff:biggrin2:

CADplans 03-20-2018 11:24 PM

Our 3-6 inches of snow was supposed to start at midnight,

well, it started at 9:30, and by 10:30 we had 3 inches already,,, an hour and a half before it was supposed to start,,,

I guess they will up the forecast,, after the snow comes down?? :bigthink:

It is steady coming down right now,,

John we only have about 2" so far and the driveway is clear. :biggrin2:

mickb72 03-21-2018 11:13 AM

3" of heavy wet snow overnight here. Doesn't want to move very easy. Maybe a little plow tractor with chains will help. Mike:biggrin2:

You guys are funny. You'll never hear a woman complain that she was supposed to get 3"-6" and got 8":biggrin2:

Mr Bob 03-21-2018 02:54 PM

6 to 8
 
Be careful Tim, some one will get you for some kind of assault. I'm old and can't remember what kind. I still haven't figured out what the "Me To" movement is about.:biggrin2: Have a great day.

the 6" to 12" they forecasted was off a bit.

We got 16" so far and it's still snowing. The 125 with the QA-42 got another work out.

And I thought it was only the Southern weathermen that got the forecast wrong.:biggrin2::biggrin2: Of course if they predicted 16" here, well rioting wouldn't be the proper term for it. Amazing how how 90% of the folks manage just fine, but those other 10%--well, you ain't got to worry about them moving up North!

"Me Too", it's like a credit card, you get to pay later for what you got earlier,just like alimony :biggrin2:.

Emotional spirits,, or liquid spirits,,

I know ANY form of snow lifts my grandchildrens' spirits,,,

EVEN higher, if the ATV is out and pulling them on a sled,,,
When can I buy an autonomous ATV,, so I can stay warm, and they can get their sled riding?? :bigthink:
