gcb Posted Monday at 04:11 PM Report Posted Monday at 04:11 PM The weather men got it right!! The Blizzard was spot on. So far we have 23'' and still snowing with winds still gusting to 50mph. Here are a couple of before and current pictures!! Will have to wait a few days to dig out the KK for my first cook of 2026!! Stay safe if you're in the northeast and don't over do it with the shoveling !!! Be smart take breaks or just hire someone to get it done!!! 1 1

jdbower Posted yesterday at 03:00 PM Report Posted yesterday at 03:00 PM I'm bi-coastal so it's really fun being in NYC and seeing ~2' of snow on my patio while also seeing my solar roof pulling in 12kW of juice in San Diego. Why am I in NYC over the winter? 1

I'm really impressed with the path you carved out absolutely a beautiful job! Question did where did you end up parking the snow blower?? P.S. Are you still disappointed As you were on Sunday at 3am ? Edited yesterday at 05:12 PM by gcb 1
C6Bill Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago (edited) Max likes it but I fail to see the humor in it 😡 I’ll dig the 32 out in a few days Edited 3 hours ago by C6Bill 1
tony b Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago Love the pic of the pooch! Everyone be safe. As crazy as it sounds, we'll be 60F here on Friday, but only 30F on Saturday. March can't make up its mind if it wants to come in like lion or lamb?
Tyrus Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago Well gcb, it's kinda like this...I asked my wife to wake me up while I was sleeping downstair in a recliner ever "poised to" at a moments notice attack this storm. So at 3am my first glance wasn't as impressive as expected, by 6am the tide had changed immensely and I was out for a series of 3x during the day front and back doing the snow blower/shovel thing. Snow like we experienced as I last remember from 1978 is a rare phenomenon, still thankful it couldn't kick our spirit. That old Craftsman snowblower resides in the garage, I'd put him up against any of todays models,,,it's a beast.
braindoc Posted 19 minutes ago Report Posted 19 minutes ago We had about 3 feet here in East Greenwich, RI. My regular plow guy couldn’t come; his new pickup with heavy duty plow attachment broke down. Fortunately, one neighbor with a Kubota L47 and another with a snow blower came to the rescue. I’ve been working remotely but I’ll venture into my office in Providence tomorrow afternoon. It was not cleaned up well after the last big storm; can’t imagine how bad it will look now. BYW: My wife was in college in Newport for the legendary 1978 blizzard. The school ran out of food so they survived on PBJ sandwiches. I was in med school in Italy. Locals came up to me with newspapers showing photos of the storm. A lot tougher keeping in touch back then! I remember going to a Centro Telefonico to have an operator place calls home. Truly, the good old days. Our backyard -
