Snow coming!!
Original Message   Jan 8, 2011 5:17 pm
Finally! Under a WSW with this from the NWS:
USING THE GARCIA METHOD WHICH LOOKS AT 700 MB MOISTURE ADVECTION FOR SNOW AMOUNTS…THERE COULD BE 3 TO 6 INCHES OF SNOW DURING A 12 HOUR PERIOD. WITH THE EVENT EXPECTED TO LAST ABOUT 24 HOURS…SNOW AMOUNTS WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM 5 TO 8 INCHES. THE NAM AND GFS ARE EVEN HINTING AS SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY ACROSS EASTERN KS…WHICH COULD HELP IN INCREASING SNOWFALL RATES AND TOTAL AMOUNTS. WE ARE FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT MOST AREAS WILL SEE 4 TO 6 INCHES…AND THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR POSSIBLY 6 TO 8 INCHES WITHIN A 12HR WINDOW.

Review of the Toro 221 one coming soon!

Just so you know, the snow will keep pounding on when all you have is that itty bitty shovel.

You need to buy a big snowblower to scare the snow gods away.

Do it quick! 

Oh yeah! that's what it is. The old rule of the rain always coming just after you wash your car!!!

Ok snow gods, MY MACHINE IS BROKEN & IT WILL TAKE A WHILE TO REPAIR!

(do you think they bought it?)

Cheers

Must be working. Storm is heading my way. I tricked the snow gods by summerizing the snowblower and bringing out the lawnmower and string trimmer. The forecast calls for 2 to 6 inches.

I actually started a thread specically for this sort of thing. Waxing your snowblower will have the same result as washing your car. All nice and clean and shiny! New England weather especially loves to get everything dirty. We had a drought this past year and I didn't wash my car all summer. Coincidence? I think not!

This current storm will completely pass us by which is good because I don't want to see any more snow for the rest of the winter.

"If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you live in New England."  "If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you live in New England."
