Hi Rob,
I'm not going out to shovel until it stops snowing.
Looks to be at least a foot.
Should be a piece of cake compared to the thirty inches we got last time.
Hey there Rickster 5minutes after my last post at 11:30 AM or so the electric went out again, falling trees, I just got back on line 30 minutes ago, it is still snowing
and pics will just have to wait until Sunday Morning as it is still terrible visibility,not quite zero but not even 150 feet, my Parents live 2.5 miles from me and it took me 25 minutes to get there, I didn't need 4 wheel but my bed is filled to the brim with heavy as$ wet snow so my traction was fine. The electric at Mom and Dad' house was off all day right up until 1 hour ago so I had to go build two fires in the airtights and shovel a path to their doors as they are both 70 plus years old and just can't do it anymore.I humped in enough firewood for the night and brought them my old school kerosene space heater, just in case they let the fire go out, I hope not though.
I believe that the damage will be in the millions just in my neighbor hood as there are huge trees, even oaks partially down or completely down on just about every block and almost every pine tree that is taller than 20 feet has either snapped in half completely or split down the middle from a Y section which will just kill the poor tree any way, it is devastating no matter how one looks at it.
I lost 75 % of the trees on my property which my son and I planted since he was a wee tyke back in kindy school, really sad, I cried a bit but had to pull it together for the sake of the parents,I never let them sense those feelings it takes too much of a toll on them.
I saw power company trucks from Philly down here, nice to know we have back up as there are more wires on the ground then I have ever seen any where ever !
I think I am lucky to have my health and be in good shape cause that shoveling snow shite, well lets just say it suczz big time.
