Default Anyone in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, etc ready for our incoming snow?!
Seems like it's been a very precipitous week here in my neck of the woods, had snow Sunday into Monday, then again Monday night, and now a long duration heavy snow event is looming over us. 99% of the predictions are falling in line with anywhere from 6-12 inches total between Thursday night and Friday night tapering off into Saturday morning. That's a lot of snow!

Anyone else geared up and ready to spend some time out there playing in the snow?

I had 13in in one shot two weeks ago. Been snowing on and off for the last couple of days. Don’t think we are getting what you are talking about, I’m on the western edge of IA.

Be careful what you wish for. I'm about sick and tired of snow. I'm ready for spring and growing grass. Anxious to get some crabgrass preventer down.

Nope not ready. Still need to swap the chained tires back on the 149 and reinstall the blade. It makes perfect sense I took them off to put the new tires on and didn't snow hardly at all till that point.... now not even a week later it looks like my blower is gonna get some use

Well I was/am all excited and it looks like the storm is tracking more northerly than expected, I'm sad I even changed the oil in the 1864 tonight because what was fresh at the beginning of winter was starting to look a little dark for my taste. I even gave the neighbor a free oil change on his snow blower I was so excited!! I guess we'll see what the night brings but it's looking like less than I had hoped. I even bet a local friend of mine on how much we'd get and loser buys lunch. I have a feeling I'm buying lunch

We had about 5" already on the ground. Got another 5" (and still falling) with another 3-5 predicted for the next two days.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
