I hope so. After spending almost $600 on my snowblower the thing is just sitting in my garage doing nothing...

i agree. i also got a new one this year and have been very disappointed in the lack of snow. An unused snowthrower is a useless snowthrower.

Yankees are lunatics. This thread is proof. They WANT Mother Nature to take a big white dump on them.

Not all of them. I hate winter, and wish congress would outlaw all snow except for a period between thanksgiving and new years. |

You think that's bad. I have only 400 miles on my 2 year old $7500 sled!!! For all those miles I had to drive to another time zone to use it. |

Since I moved to Minnesnowta in 93' I have yet to see a world class dump.
 I have however finally frozen my ass off.

Hey everyone- Im in Inver Grove Heights MN here- which city are you all from ?
i could care less if we get snow, i do tree removal for a living so the faster the ground dries up the easier work is in the spring. as for snowblowers and snowmobiles... i sold my Polaris 500 a few years ago, probably the dumbest thing ive ever bought and the smartest thing ive ever sold. I now use my 2003 Yamaha Grizzly 660 w/27" mud tires to plow my driveway  stay warm |

I'll take your yankee, and add that I'm part "damn Irish".
Now gimme some snow. Winter without snow is like......uh.........camping without swimming or boating. Or something. Without water. Yeah. |

How about the 24" that hit last March in So. MN in 24 hours? Not world class? It was a 24 hour record in Rochester IIRC. |

This 24 inch snow fall hit Byron, and Salem on the first day of Spring, March 2005.
I remember it well. I drove home at 6am, and was breaking through snow drifts even with the hood of my Chevy 4x4. |

2" of snow at a time is fine with me. 12" of blowing snow is no fun out in rural MN. We still have snow on the ground here.
I'm west central, and I don't think we're supposed to get much. It's mostly south, I think. www.weather.com/weather/map/56201?name=index_large_animated&day=1 |

I grew up in Minnesota and the "real thing" (snow and high winds) are pretty dangerous. Lots of people used to die especially in rural areas. I have been on the road one time in a white out and it's frightening.
