Were you walloped with the white stuff? Did you leave your car outside, and can't find it now?

Yet, I'm sitting in Lansing right now and I can see grass. Bizarre weather patterns.

Only time my snowblower has run so far this year was the test start about a month ago. I'm not complaining though!

32.7" here as well. First official total was 30.9" but apparently that was just Saturday snowfall, ignoring friday night. That's the most snow I've had at once in my entire life and may well remain so. At least it was fairly fluffy - clearing it was not that bad and all the roads had been plowed by about 9am Sunday. I already put this pic in the other thread:

In reply to Wall-e:

You'd think they would park them about 24" apart to make room for a shovel or snowblower. That looks like it is going to be an unnecessary PITA to dig out.

The 'first storm of 2016' thread. And I deleted it from there as this one seemed more appropriate. Don't worry you didn't make a redundant thread :p

In reply to RedGT:

No one could remember ever having them buried like that before. They are tight enough together that you usually just have to clear the front of the lane and pull them out. Digging out wasn't the end of the world since you had a building fell of drivers that had nowhere to go and a closet full of shovels.

I always fear creating the redundant thread. But this one needs more pictures!

I'll help with the pictures, but this is the best I can do.

If you look real, real close, there is a tiny little bit of white stuff on the roof of the houses and the tops of the cars.

I would post pics of the 4' snow wall created from shoveling the driveway... but I can't move anything but my fingers and my phone is just too far away to bother. Maybe tomorrow.

That's about what I go where I am in pa, an hour south got 30 some inches, 20 minutes south got 10. My shovel hasn't came out of the basement yet.

Behind that door was my snowblower that had to come out thru that door. From the inside it looked like this.

I eventually got it out, around to the street and got the sidewalk semi-clear.
