I had a set of Bridgestone blizzak snow tires on a small sedan years ago. They were great. I wouldn't even shovel the car out. If it actually snowed a lot consistantly where I live, I'd get another set.

Several days in the mid 40's here. Snow in the lawn is gone.

We haven't had much snow so far this year. Last night we got 5-6" of heavy wet snow. Probably more than all other storms combined.

I had an issue with the snowcaster sort if rattling/vibrating as I pushed it. I made a quick attempt to raise the blower by lowering the Berco skid shoes but it didn't help. Problem goes away when I pick up the snowcaster 1/4" or so. When it thaws out I'll do a better job at raising the snowblower. I don't think I checked the scraper bar this year.

Well looks like our winter thaw is over :33:
I don’t think this is going to amount to much this time maybe 4 or 5 inch’s, but there saying some nasty weather is supposed to come in over the weekend. Cold rain turning to more snow. :33:
Come on spring!
