WOOHOO! Snow!!!
 
4 Attachment(s)
So I was at the shop earlier around 7:30ish then left to go home, on the way it started snowing. Decided why not go out to the bars. Went downtown and thought it would be a good idea to stay sober and I'm glad I did because the ride home was an interesting one to say the least. Here is a few pictures of my deck. Keep in mind the railing is about 4ft tall.

So in about 8hrs there is a good 2-1/2ft of snow on my deck. The left half of the deck there is nothing under it, the right half has my xmas tree still. HAHA.

I should have got pictures of EvilEvo's 91 GS that we had to pull out and across town. Interesting adventure!

Anyone up near the cities get hit this bad? I'll post some more tomorrow.

Starting to snow in Ramsey, with the slick under layer it will suck to drive on the side streets.

How is it around the cities right now. Trying to make plans and arrangements for the night and curious to see what it's like outside. Like around Minneapolis down by 55/62 interchange.

Re: WOOHOO! Snow!!!
 
We were suppose to get 5-7" last night but we got 12" instead... Tonight we are suppose to get another 8-12" so well see how that goes.

Minneapolis is suppose to get 12" as well tonight.

I just got back from plowing my parents driveway and sidewalks with the 4wheeler, took me 4.5hrs! Fucking insane amount of snow. Dont know where to put it all.

Yeah we got about 5" of icy sleet down here in Red Wing last night, and its been off and on all day. About 4 to 5" so far. But the roads are super slippery. Its supposed to snow like hell tonight, and come to think of it I just looked outside and its coming down hard and its really windy.

Time to break out the sled. Yippy.

AJ 02-24-2007 05:02 PM

Re: WOOHOO! Snow!!!
 
It's sleeting and raining up here, and now as it gets colder all this slush is going to turn into ice. Already seen a few cars in the ditch today.

You don't have to go to work do you? The hill/road to
TI can be a bitch when it's like this.

I hate this crap. I've spent hours shoveling and I'll probably have to do
it all over again. If anyone wants all my snow you can come and get it. :)
Minnesota's great. I'm goin' to steal someones snowblower.

AJ 02-24-2007 06:20 PM

Re: WOOHOO! Snow!!!
 
6-10 inches now expected tonight for us in the Rogers & Elk River area. We where only to get a small dusting as of last night. Fuck'n A.

TheBlizzard 02-24-2007 06:29 PM

Re: WOOHOO! Snow!!!
 
No I don't have to work tonight. I only live 7 miles from work anyway. If it was too bad to drive my car I would drive my snowmobile there. Its snowing like crazy here right now. I might have to get my stuff on in a few hours and go and tear up the streets on the snowmobile.

Or just stay home and drink. Hmmmm.

The GF's SVX got a lil snowed in but AWD conqured all, having all 3 of my cars being AWD... priceless.
Keep in mind that the day before almost all the snow had melted, this all came in a night

After we got it all cleared out, the plow decided to finally come through again and we had to do it all again. Once we were finally finished, took a shower, ate breakfast, and I was off to work to shovel some more.

What a day.

So as a final result I believe we got around 18-19". Dont know an exact number yet but all I can say is there is a lot of fucking snow!

I woke up to this morning to my patio looking like this. Thank god for the overhang on the roof or I probably wouldnt be able to open my door. Although I'm happy to actually get some snow for a change, I hope it doesnt snow any more this year. I'm ready for warm weather!
