14.6 inches

A good friend is moving her niece to Harlem next weekend. That should be fun.

Now they’re saying 27-31”

We've had about 15" and for the last 6 hours they've been telling me we're getting another 1" in the next 24 hours. We had four in the last hour or so, so if anything it's getting worse.

I’m really not looking forward to one last shoving in the dark after dinner. But I need to do it to get salt down before the ‘wintry mix’ comes

I suppose Boy-NYC is not available.

[jon-nyc]

He’s at his mom’s this week. I don’t make him do this unless I’m sick. His mom does.

Then again it’s never been this big a deal. I’ll probably get a small snow blower next year just to be sure it never snows again.

[Mik]

Good strategy. Man plans, God laughs.

Probably too late for advice, but if you can leave a little snow on the ground, the ice will stay on top of the snow when you clear it. Much harder to get ice off (I suppose salt helps) if it's fused to the pavement directly.

It’s still bloody snowing here. I went out thinking we were done and there was another 6 inches there.

[jon-nyc]

Jesus.

[Doctor Phibes]

I think I might be in line for next year's Nobel. As I worked on the roughly 3 feet of very heavy ploughed snow in front of my driveway, a lady cheerfully remarked 'It is New England, after all!', and I didn't hit her with my shovel.

[jon-nyc]

Admit it she was out of reach and you were too tired to run after her.

We got an about 7” and then another 2” of sleet. Turned to ice over night. Yesterday, when I let Chupacabra out back to go find a goat, she kept falling into snow banks over her head. This morning, she was skating and sliding along the top…

Wow!!
