the Big Snow Feb 2011







Well we experienced a white out last night with 2" of snow per hour and 50 mph winds. I shoveled the front porch and front of the gargae door and within 30 minutes it looked like I hadn't even touched it. Trouble is my "mighty" snowblower gets pretty wimpy when the snow is more than 12". By morning it was still coming down furiously and we had drifts around 5 feet deep. Around Chicago, snow on the ground quickly turns to ice if you don't get after it, so a-shoveling we went.
