Re: The weather
Yesterday was snow on and off , high winds all day . About 4 " of snow I need to clear today , but that can wait for a bit as it is -16 C / 3 F right now , Warming up as the day goes and in a couple of days it will be + 8 C / 48 F . In about an hour I will go out and plug in the blower tractor , It will take about an hour to warm it up at these temps . sure makes a big difference warming the engine and hydra oil . At least the sun is shining . For now it is time .

Re: The weather
I had about 6” but some areas it drifter to about a foot. 446 ran great moved all the snow in no time. I did notice the throttle started to creep back off full throttle so it needs a bit of tweaking to keep it there. I’m very happy with the new snow blower tires on the front with the poormans steering. Turns a lot easier than before especially with the heavy snow caster up. Harry

Re: The weather
We are currently at +12c and like you @DavidBarkey going to have a big chill tomorrow night down to -12c
I wonder how the Maple Syrup people are doing with this wonky weather ~ it's always been a highlight of the spring season for us to take in a few maple syrup festivals, nothing quite like pancakes and syrup as a treat for a weekend mini road trip

Re: The weather
It's the new thing Noel , It is called Summer Savings Time . Just like Day light Savings time . Only instead of moving the clocks ahead an hour , we move the seasons ahead a month .propane1 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2024 5:42 am Mess is it. Today is, Rain, freezing rain and snow. 2C now and raining.

Re: The weather
Well this is great. Tomorrow we’re supposed to hit a record high temperature around 80 then drop like a rock to the upper 20’s by Wednesday morning with a chance of light snow!
