Well it started snowing about 2:00 PM, we'll see how long and how much in the morning. It's trying to accumulate now.

We're at 37 and brief sun. The weather guessers think we're in for a few days of warming...maybe that'll settle into the South.
Last I looked Thursday through Saturday mid 40's to upper 40's here.

We ended up with 7 inches of heavy wet snow, looks like we lost a few limbs.

Up date, got out and away from the house more like 10 inches and a bunch of limbs. Sure glad I finally bought a tractor. We are have power surges from the snow falling of the lines and making them whip.

Tractors are life saving tools. One of my neighbor's hanger roof developed a "big sag" from the 3' snow we had in Dec and they are in AZ dodging rattlesnakes and staying warm. Two other neighbors and I dug our way into the hanger and put a bunch of 6x6 posts under the trusses and saved his plane and 36 Buick sedan. I'm too old to shovel heavy snow anymore or much else so the tractor is my answer to Winter. Just can't touch the ice...only Spring fixes that problem.

Be careful out there!!

We got lucky, the rain quickly turned to snow this round. Nothing like an inch of ice and snow on top of it.

I have 4 wheel "bar" chains and they do well but not great. This is he first tractor I've owned without "ag" tires...stupid on my part.

Only rain for me. 150 miles makes a big difference.
Well darn, you can come up and help me butcher trees, 150 miles isn't far! I need someone to get in the tractor bucket with a pole saw! HA!
