Racinbob 10,857 #1 Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) I've been waiting for this. Finally we got the first snowfall since we've been back home again. My trusty old 'B'-160 was getting impatient sitting in the garage. We got 4-5" off the lake and it was play time.

BOB ELLISON 2,980 #5 Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) We got it too . About .02 of an inch I can push it with a spoon. But I've got confidence we'll get it soon. And I'll break out the old trusty c160. @Ed Kennell it makes you wonder about what he's talking about Edited December 7, 2017 by BOB ELLISON 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Craig, I did. 16 minutes ago, 953 nut said: Lets hear back from you in a few months and see if the novelty has worn off! Also, when was the last time you drove on snow and ice? I don't see it wearing off as long as I can physically handle it. We have some system snow coming overnight Friday then another 6+/- of lake stuff Saturday. Once we start getting real accumulations my problem will be where to push it with the terrain we have. I'll probably have to get the blower out but pushing it is so much fun. We usually got a taste of the driving every year during visits up here. It scares me more mingling with some Florida drivers when it rains down there. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,527 #11 Posted December 8, 2017 I'm betting you do not get tired of it this year Bob. I do have a feeling that your snow this year will be lake effect. Enjoy my friend...great picture. Welcome back to 4 seasons. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first drizzle after a week or two of no rain raises the dripped oil on the roads to the surface. Bumper car action at heavily traveled intersections every time. If you get to missing Deltona, (80 degrees for the high today), I can send you the local crime reports. I think you made the right decision.

953 nut 54,343 #20 Posted December 8, 2017 We even got some snow here in the mountains of North Carolina, but it isn't sticking to the driveway so for me that is perfict! Thought I better get a picture before it melts. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge 3,462 #23 Posted December 8, 2017 We got a few flakes yesterday morning , just enough to show some evidence on the truck - nothing else yet . Suppose to get a dusting tomorrow - but I still need to install the bigger battery in the infernal D - Big Ugly ...lol . That's today's project , if I can heat the shed up enough...can't we have snow with warmer temps ? Sarge 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 54,343 #25 Posted December 8, 2017 Turns out the forecaster was a bit off on today's snow totals. Morning news said not more than a dusting, so far we have about six inches and now they say it is likely to be nine ti twelve inches total. Soooo, I got some seat time on the 1055 and will probably get more tomarow! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
