Got about 8 inches of drifted snow, temperature was -2 . Used my Husqvarna 27 inch, with Briggs 14.5 Hydro . It was easy to do , new paved driveway is 110 ft long and 18 wide and a paved parking area 24x26 . Then the weather got warmer, went up to +8 , then it rained hard and took off all the snow. Oh well, I got a chance to blow some snow.

Sorry , We use the Celcius scale in Canada
-2 Celcius is 28.4 Fahrenheit Water freezes at 0 deg Celcius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit +8 Celcius is 46.4 Fahrenheit "EH"

No snow to report and none expected anytime in the near future according to the weather guru's. Its finally gotten colder (highs in mid 20's, lows in single digits) but it's expected to warm up a bit towards weeks end. What a difference from last winter - we were buried at this time last year and ended up with one big storm right after another.
