Woke up to 4° here in Lincoln. Didn’t get as cold as I thought it would. Going to have a bit of a warm up in the next few days. Hopefully it will melt the snow and ice that has accumulated.

We got another inch of snow but it’s freaking cold with biting wind.

14F this morning with a wind chill of 4 degrees. Full moon, clear skies, and a white background make it light enough outside to read a book. Never see it that light without the snow on the ground.

Never heard of this mod....about $16 and a little work to throw the snow a lot better.
Amazon has the impeller kits for any type of snow blower.

The snowbirds and offroad crowd are everywhere in S/W AZ & CA.
I thank them all for coming out and supporting the local economies, its a big deal to the region.

Why is this wearing those gloves? It’s a brand new machine. Is he afraid of getting his dirty?
Maybe it’s got dust on it.

“Back in my day,” we never wore gloves. We got grease on our hands and wash them off with gasoline - with a cigarette in our lips

^^^ Surprising that he didn't have ear and eye protection also.
After all, he was running an electric drill.

A high of 10degrees and a low of 4 Sunday. Did I say I don’t mind Ohio’s ever changing weather?

I spent 4 years in New England, after spending a year in Korea (very cold, harsh winter). I will NEVER live in a cold climate again. You all can have it!

MN metro area got around 5” last night. Temp is upper 20’s F, so plowed roads are clearing up nicely. Very cold coming Friday- double digits below zero forecasted.

We got around 3-4 inches of heavy wet snow. The snow blower made quick work of it. It was around freezing most of the day but is turning cold.

31° this morning and it warmed up to 58° later. The Mark Clark Bridge on 526, froze up and traffic was at a standstill this morning. Took me four hours to get from north Mount Pleasant to Beaufort this morning. Usually it takes about 2.25 hours.
