Yeah,we're suppose to get 8-12" here in Jay County. I'm going out tomorrow and put the snow plow on the ATV. I went out to do it a week ago when we were suppose to get 5-9" but the battery was dead on it. Luckily we didn't get what they said,we might of got 4",not sure. I may finally after 7 years get to see what my 4x4 Ford Ranger can do .

Gonna get a bit messy it looks like. Plus the second storm coming in Wednesday to Thursday. Figured we wonโt be leaving the house for a bit. Our private road is bad enough right now. Add another foot of snow and itโs gonna be terrible.

Picked last week to break my seldom-used snow shovel cleaning off my in-laws driveway. Ha! Now that I finally need it...

This could be the biggest snow fall I've ever seen in my life. Around 12" is the most I remember and that was when I was a kid.

Good luck everyone. I do understand that even 4 is a big deal down there with the drifting. We have all the tree's so seldom ever see drifting around here. We get 12 it's a flat even 12, not the 4-6ft drifts you all get.

Budd, here at this house, I very rarely get drifts because of the trees. At the other house a 4" snow could turn into a 3' drift like you said. I will have to take the tractor over to the other house on Tuesday afternoon because the driveway will be impassible even for a 4wd truck. Tractor has a back blade and a FEL.

Looks like we might be back at the same amount this time. This is coming down so dry last night and so far this morning that a leaf blower is all that will be needed to clear the sidewalks and drives. I've got a tarp over the truck right now so I don't have to clean it off to go home.

You can count on me if you need a hand! ๐ Just give me a heads up so I can call our ole buddy Bob P to corral one of his tractors for ya! Cause you already know my truck will barely make it down your road let alone your driveway!๐

I used a push broom to clear my sidewalk and concrete pad. The black top was practically clear at 0530 this morning.
Got the truck out in case it gets bad tonight, but I drove in with rear wheel drive.

A lot of farmers pulled out tree rows, woods, and even fencing around here the last several years. So we are getting drifting not only across rural roads, but our 2 major highways, including my route to and from work.
