Predicted 30mph winds would have made it quite uncomfortable
but that was fortunately wrong.
Still and all this is well within our normal January, much
short of record.

Enjoy today; you'll get plenty of snow Sunday into Monday. Deep and wet.

We're in the northwest portion of the storm, at this point
we're predicted to get 18-24", but not heavy/wet. The heavy
wet prediction is for southeast/cape/islands where there are
ocean heating effects. With any luck (for me) they'll be
right this time. It'll still take me a few hours to clean up
even with my beast of a snowblower* because we have two
driveway entrances on a main travel road. I anticipate a
packed swath of snow from the plows at the end of my
driveway likely over two feet deep and projecting into my
drivway 6-8 feet of very wet (from the town melting
treatments) snow-plow packed snow on both entrances.
If the predictions are correct and the temperature stays loe
enough to keep the snow relatively dry, we won't see too
many downed limbs/lines.

Nice. I'm a stranger to snow blowers and had to read the
installation directions to find that there's a horizontal
V-belt pulley under the engine. Simpler than PTO hydraulic
hoses.

My last Wisconsin home had 700 feet of driveway moderately uphill.
from the road. I did most snow removal with a 4wd ATV with a front
mounted blade. My old compact Oliver tractor with an front endloader
was a last resort for big drifts the ATV couldn't move although the
bladed tractor tires were not good on ice and snow. Even after
cleaning my driveway and turning circle, I often needed the 4wd truck
to get to work because our dead-end road was one of the last to see a
county snow plow.
I'm happy that all that is behind me now.
