roscoemi 245 #1 Posted January 31, 2014 It's hard to show any depth in these pic's due to the light, but it's a bit deep. My mutts are between 12 and 15" tall. The snow is about 4 1/2' in the background. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,497 #3 Posted January 31, 2014 Roscoe. Holy smokes. Now that's snow. We only have about 6 to 7 inches left. And a small warm up coming. Thanks for the pics. Glenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,029 #7 Posted January 31, 2014 Standing snow, kinda hard to say with the wind we have had, but about 24" snow banks and drifts 2 to 4 feet tall. calling for about 8 to 10 more inch this saturday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SousaKerry 501 #8 Posted January 31, 2014 Wife read a long range forecast for the next 2-3 weeks, potential for 3 8-12" storms for a total of 3 more feet by mid February... Looks like I will be spending the weekend finally mounting the blower to the old C-175 cause the Trailblazer 5 ain't cutting it and it keeps breaking down. I'd mount up the plow but there is no place to push anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,675 #9 Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) We are around 40+ inches on the west side of Lake Michigan this year...your pictures remind me of the winter of 1978/79. I do not see any angels in the snow in those pictures...I hope you are enjoying all the snow you have there in Kingsley. :happy-jumpeveryone: Edited January 31, 2014 by stevasaurus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roscoemi 245 #11 Posted February 1, 2014 Yeah Dino, I like the snow after being stationed for 3 1/2 years in Louisana and that bloody heat and humidity. We have had two melt offs this season and still have this, I would have a phd (piled hi-er and deeper) if that never happened. My boy P'Chop is loving plowing on his Ranger even if the Techy is past it's useful life span, he prays for it to start every day while awaiting spring rebuild on it. As the banks are taller than he is, all he can do is stage piles for me to get rid of with the blower. As SousaKerry says we usually get pounded in Feb so this may get a little interesting, but the lake levels should be up this summer! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,675 #16 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) We are pushing 5' now this winter...more snow Saturday and nowhere to push it. The last 2 times, I have plowed the snow to one side and then got out the snow blower to blow it over the existing snow. UNCLE... ...we need a thaw!!! Here are some pictures... The picnic table seats are like 17" off the ground... check the mound across the street...probably 7' 4' plowed and blown...plowed bank is about even with the top of the bed of that pick up... End of the drive way is a good 4' and no room left... The stars this year...the techy has been great... Edited February 5, 2014 by stevasaurus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,675 #18 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) I'll have new batteries for this weekends snow...video for sure. Luckily, I still have some friends at NASA from my Navy days. As long as the snow is dry, I can get through it. We are getting anywhere from 2 to 6" about every 3rd day this season...and no thaw. That little techy Ariens is from like 1978...3.5 hsp and still runs great...starts on the 2nd pull....I do have to dangle a slice of cheese in front of it...Wisconsin.

Wishin4a416 2,190 #19 Posted February 5, 2014 Nice pictures fellows. We have not near that much. Lot of snows, just not much accumulation. Hey Steve, that neighborhood looks like where that Movie, The Christmas Story was filmed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roscoemi 245 #20 Posted February 5, 2014 Dino, you don't have any snow! Our entire yards are as deep as your bank! I was out to the west in Honor this afternoon and the banks along the road were within a foot of covering the road signs. I was in East Tawas yesterday and took a pic of a doe in an opening in the trees, buried up to her neck munching on small trees. If you look close she is in the center of the pic. The loader came thru the neighborhood today. Bet your Tecky would not throw over those piles! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,675 #21 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Roscoe...I know the deer are small up there from eating pine needles. Uncle...you have more snow then me. Nice pictures mate. What a winter...may put some water back in Lake Michigan...hope. I thought Kingsley sounded familiar...that is the back way I take to Ranch Rodolph. (sp) Tubing on the Boardman River. Used to get our wine cherries from McManis Orchards before they went private. We should never have as much snow as you get. I hear they got rid of the dam at the small lake that was there near the bait shop on the way to Traverse City. That was a nice lake. Jack...a lot of Chicago Land looks like Cleveland... Need one of those lamps for the front window. Edited February 5, 2014 by stevasaurus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stratostar250 919 #22 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Nothing to brag about, not as much as some of you guys, but we did get a heavy 10-12 inches last night, on top of 5-6 from a couple days ago. sadly, last nights was wet snow and pretty tough to push with the 310. had to clear the sidewalks with the snowblower, I'll have to keep an eye out for a blower for my horse! and to think over the weekend all the snow pretty much melted away, and in 4 days this much can come back, I don't really mind snow though, so Edited February 6, 2014 by stratostar250 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
