Nor-Easter ,work from home day

Well I knew sooner or later they would get the weather right and winter would show up



Calling for 15 -25 cm, not a lot but heavy winds up to 60km, Not terrible but enough for me to pick my job and stay home and work
Coming up from New England coast, Thank you .
From my cameras when I took the shot , looks nice in the back yard. NOT lol

Looks like snow a little bit every day or so this week. I knew it was too good to be true and stay snowless for that long.

Play safe out there .

We were supposed to get all kinds of heavy weather from that system but it never really happened. Rained all day yesterday which of course we didn't need but the strong winds and snow never happened, just stayed to warm.

We have been lucky so far mostly called for snow and then freezing rain and then rain.

kind of like that all January but also very cold with no snow on ground. I liked it

But today windy and drifting , schools cancelled, lol Looking for my toboggan, as its a no school snow day . ha ha

You can keep it lol, we got almost 8" about 3 weeks ago or so, schools missed almost 2 weeks and burned up all the snow days, I never got farther than the steps on my deck, dog braved it to potty lol. left my GPS with video plugged in and the cold temps made it turn on, ran my battery flat and hope it has recovered. lessons learned the hard way. We had a couple night of -8 or close.

DRKs, We were supposed to get a dusting to one inch, LOL got 5 inches of wet stuff. Nothing like what you are seeing though !

You can have it David! We had 7" a few days ago. Went to use the blower. And the blower wouldn't lower all the way. After about an hour. It occurred to me the I had the attachment deck set to 4" still from using the mower!! Duh!

Well i'm back. Storm was not terrible, but it sucked. Received about 25cm snow ( 9/10" ) but the wind just would not stop. So so nice drifts.
Like Jim mentioned , just hung around the inside and stayed warm.
Power never went out or even flickered.

Could not find my toboggan from where I was looking. LOL. Once out took about 3 hours with the snow blower. No fun when it just blows back in your face . So had to do it in the opposite direction ( hence the 3 hours )

Pretty to look at from inside. From nothing to lots.

I am sure I don't want it so would love to pass on to elsewhere.
That sucks about 2 weeks of school missed. Hope your GPS will boot back up .
It has been below 0 "C" here all month with a couple days that shot up to +12 "C" than right back down.
That is what this week will be. Cold Cold

It kind of was for awhile. I like to get at it and get the day rolling. So it was 3 cup of tea morning.
But it was storming all night and most of the day.
Went out around 1 pm and took about 3 hours. It sucked in the wind . Had to blow it in a different direction so I could see and not
completely freeze up.

Just love how perfect the weather people can be.
5 " of wet snow compared to a dusting. Big difference.
My snow blower hates wet snow, does not throw it far enough for my driveway.

Ours was bad but at least just regular kind of snow. Shi**y and everywhere.

Love it when it even drifts under the van and packs tight.

Well that's embarrassing. and frustrating at the same time.
But if you had used it that way it would have left you with just 3" and you could have just used your cordless ( shovel ) lol

Kidding, at least you figured it out before you called in the service guy and he pointed it out.
