Won't get to WI until later but you can feel the dampness in the air.

New snowblower and balmy 34 degrees keeping it from sticking still. Wish I thought that would last, we do need precipitation and the ground isn’t frozen yet.

 

[BCClone]

Kinda stopped now.

 

[CychiatricWard]

When will it start sticking and accumulating?

 

[ISUAgronomist]

Spectrum just sent us a notice about possibly losing power a bit ago which I thought was a bit odd

Whole home generator brought fully online today. Hope we don't need it but I'm prepared!

If this all holds...this will go down as one of those storms you remember.

That’s why you shovel at the beginning of the storm to get rid of the heavy, wet snow, then you’re good to go at the end.

When will it start sticking and accumulating?

Supposedly overnight

 

[CychiatricWard]

Getting pretty slick and coming down fairly good in the metro at the moment. Seeing some sliding going on by the kum and go building downtown where I live.

Just starting to snow here in Davis Co, and yes, you are going to need your snowblower before this is over. When our sons still lived at home we could go out and scoop out the drive, once they left, I did it once, after one large store, I phoned my wife and told her, "Look, I am getting too old, late 50's at the time, to be scooping the drive out by myself, so we either get a snowblower or plan on paying for my heart attack." She responded, "I guess you should get yourself a snowblower then." One of the better purchases we have ever made, this will be the 4 seasons, started right up a couple of weeks ago, and its actually kind of fun.

My husband thought the same and would help out the neighbors. Until last year and almost 90” of snow for the winter. The snowblower was used WAY more than the lawnmower, sometimes twice a day. Halfway through last winter whenever it started snowing, I’d hear him say “F..kin snow!”

We are by TRHS in DSM and it’s really starting to come down now.

Just remember there's lots of snow to go. We'll be with it through Tuesday afternoon. If it was heavy snow through the duration the totals would be even higher! Already seeing some blowing snow in the parking lot when I went out. I think tomorrow will be an issue with wind.

I have a real OCD neighbor two houses down from me that has shoveled twice already! We’d be hard pressed to have 2” of snow right now even!

Doing it how I would if I still lived in town. I’d be out there constantly.
