The wind is blowing the snow around so much that I can't tell how much has fallen. There is 10" sitting on the balcony railing, and it is piled higher than the bumper on my Tundra on the street. Some of the cars here are just white lumps. Snow is falling sideways.

Thank goodness they didn't make me come in and squirrel around in a mail truck!

Ah, so am I.  I'm in Jenkintown.  I got lucky and the snows blowing right over my neighbors garage and right over my Jeep.  Looks like I've been shoveling it out all day.  Haven't even left the house.  Nobody else on the street got that lucky though!!

I wonder if anyone around here tried to get out for the last day of deer season.  I doubt it.

Congrats on the new baby Cwilder!!

Same here Bucky. 6 to 10 was the original estimate. Still have power. Don't think we'll get what you might but still too much. If I never see another snow flake it'll be too soon. Did get my target in and have been flinging a few every now and then just to break up the boredom.

Right around 30" or more at my place today. I'm so glad my kids bought me a snow blower for Christmas last year. I went out early this morning and we were at 20" + at that time. Good thing I started then because it was about all the machine could take at one time. After the second pass this evening this old buck is done for the day.

I hope you guys can't get in this one heck of a storm stay safe and warm. Been reading about all the power outages. Our son is in Pa. enduring his first real snow storm. Me, I made 2qts. of Orange juice from our tree. Maybe do a little shooting in AM.

Probably looking at about 16-18" total here, but Ill have to break out the tape measure tomorrow.  Shoveled a good amount today so tomorrow wont be too bad I hope.  Started work on a string pouch to hang on my back quiver I made over the last couple weeks.

How crazy is it?
I am about 1/2 way up New York state, and not a flake.
I'll be shooting outside today, and hopefully you will be soon. Hang in there. Spring is coming.

Just dug myself and a neighbor out of hip deep snow. Plows have not been here since 8 AM. That was a floppy blade in front of a pickup truck.

I bought a Tundra because I hate shoveling snow. My nice neighbors had kids dig them out, shoveling snow in front of my truck.    :mad:  

So, when she couldn't drive in the mess that is our street, I dug, shoved and finagled her car back into its parking place next to my truck. Good Samaritan? NO! Self defense!       :readit:      :p

Football and beer time now.
