Just like the lyrics to the old sone, I'm looking forward tot he snow
tonight. Bought a new snowblower when Lowed had the 15% off sale. It
sits in the garage, gassed up and ready to go. Predictions are 5 to
8 inches overnight.

I'm also hoping that it is the last snow of the winter, but I doubt
that is going to happen.


4" here so far and it is heavy and sticky. So the snow blower won't be
used today.


Get yourself a little single stage for that stuff. My 18" electric
toro throws slush as far as most 2-stage blowers throw powder.


We seldom get wet snow. Usually it is just the last storm of the season.
Today's snow is a one month early event. It is forecast to be 50 on Tuesday.


[I still use my 1980ish Franken-blower 10HP for the dry stuff-- but
mostly because it doesn't have a cord and it's wider.
