4-6 inches tomorrow (Friday)
"significant accumulation" tomorrow night

I fail to see what's funny.

"Significant accumulation" evidently means that there will be alot, but they can't narrow down specifically how much just yet.

As an update, I checked again and now they are saying 8-12" Friday night.  Is that significant enough for you?

Given that he's probably from the area of NY that received upwards of 9 FEET of snow, I'd have to say....  no

You suck!

I haven't been able to get my old Toro started this year and I thought I had dodged the bullet. I can get her started with a shot of starting fluid but then dies. I pulled the carb and have it sitting in a pan of carb cleaner. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

Did I happen to mention you suck!  LOL

Not really. Minor speed bump. Ask Aimless about paying to have his sidewalk shoveled this year.

LOL.  Yeah, I suck now but I can gloat because my 10 year old snowblower died in the thick of the last storm.  I had to shovel my ass off!

Because up here we've had 8 ~ 12 feet!
Mostly I use a bucket-loader tractor with a plow blade on the front to plow it into plies.
I suppose if you're not used to getting dumped on, it would seem funny to those who routinly get hammered. NOTHING personal.

If my area only gets 4" to 6" I will be very happy. Were in the 16" to 24" range according to WTEN Albany.

CLEAR YOUR WIPERS! lol Especially in the area where the wipers are attached to the motors. My wiper fuse kept blowing out so I went online and some forums showed that the wiper motor may either be busted or there's obstruction. So I lifted my hood, removed all the packed ice/snow from the wipers. Popped in a new fuse and viola!

Most of the 5 cars we use have the cheap wipers that don't "tuck in", so we stand ours up at attention during these icy ones.  Just scraped 2 to 3 inches off my sidewalk and driveway in Matzohpizza.  Hope this is the last of it.
