It always sucks when you clear your drive way, only to know a plow truck will come and block you in. Then you have another half hour of work just to get out of your drive way, lol.

Every freaking time... Right when its cleared out they'll wall 2ft of snow in front of the damn driveway... Last time when we had a monster storm (2 years ago) they put about 3ft+ of hard packed snow in front of our driveway and I said **** that shit, just put the bronco in 4Lo and blasted a hole into the street.






Right now its 46 and raining, tomorrow its 52 and raining... I hate cold and no snow, whats the point?

Did you lose power? We have been out for 13 hours with no fix in sight and 25 relatives scheduled to show up at our place tomorrow night.

This blows.

No, we never lost power. While I was outside snow blowing, I saw the street light flicker a few time but we never lost power!

I was just waiting for that Jackass to come by..... Luckily he never did, but it was like a 3ft pile at the end of the driveway from where the plowed before I started.

For some reason, the last few snows we had have been so wet and heavy that my snow blower is almost worthless and I had to do most of my driveway by hand.

This morning right before we were getting ready to leave for work the Jackass came bye and put these huge 3ft snow and ice boulders in the end of my drive way. No driving over those with all the Plastic on the Explorers the wife and I have. I just ended up picking them up to move the damn things. They weren't heavy, but they were solid as hell.

Yeah, that is one big storm you folks in the midwest got hit with. We're seeing some steady light wind and stronger gusts, and off and on rain. Thankfully we didn't get any snow.
