"The Big Storm"

[timstalltaletav]

Well I was ready to get walloped by snow this weekend but it looks like we got downgraded from 12+ inches to maybe an inch or two...

In prep for the storm I made some chuck roast burnt ends. Not too much Q-view.

Rubbed waiting for the WSM to get ready:


Finished product. Excellent!

Burnt Ends Look Great, Tim!!
Like.

WE got downgraded from "8 to 12" down to 1" to 3" plus Ice.
I'll take the 1 to 3". Don't need the Ice!!

Sounds like most of us missed it. Got downgraded in KC from 5-8 inches to 2-4. Ended up with a dusting.

Food looks great!

They haven't downgraded us yet that I know of. Still looking for 12 to 18". Not sure how that will happen as it's really cold here and the flakes are very small.

Downgraded here too. Forecasted to get 11-18”. Now it’s only 5-8”. Rained all day, now it is freezing rain.

 

[timstalltaletav]

It's doing somwsomet out there now. I'm not sure it's really snow? Seems more like the snow you see out of a snow gun at ski resort. Real dry and very small flakes.

 

[smokerjim]

downgraded here also from12-18 to 8-12, like the others said snow is small flakes got about 3 inches so far

 

[Bearcarver]

We ended up with 2" of snow by Midnight---Then it rained all night, washing most of it away.
Driveway is about 2" of slush.
Supposed to get down to Zero° tonight.

I'm ready for Spring!!

changed over to rain here also sometime overnight, we ended up with maybe 4-5 inches heavy snow,slush, unfortunately snowthrower wont work with this crap, had to shovel. temps dropped like a rock with heavy winds now. come on spring

 

[Co4ch D4ve]

Got about 6” of snow here last night. Heavy winds caused some big drifts.

 

[gmc2003]

We're at about 8" and climbing. Flakes are starting to get larger so it's piling up quicker. The winds have picked up as the snow is blowing horizontally now. At least we're above 0* now.

LOL---Yeah, my 42" Gravely blower won't blow slush either.
Comes out of the chute in the form of "Cylindrical Ice Blocks".
Bear Jr's out there now with his Ram 2500 & Boss V-plow taking care of it for me. LOL---Great Kid!!
Our temp didn't drop yet---It's still 36°, but supposed drop throughout the day to get down to 9° by midnight & Zero by morning.
We sent all our snow to Vermont.

With the wind we're having I think all ours is going to wind up in New Hampshire.

Chris

I'm upstate. About 80 miles from Buffalo not far from lake Ontario. Hence this adds to our snow amounts.

 

[gmc2003]

Better you then me. Good luck riding it out.

From what I'm hearing most of PA got off lucky with the snow. But had to deal with ice. I'll take the snow over ice anytime.
