In the shanty would be doable, the set up and take down as well as the walk out would be brutal.

It was -18 here last night and -15 now at 0830. There is very little wind and the sun is shining. Waiting for that big 20 degree warm up before I go out to do a few chores.

Well the water froze in the barn so hand carried 20 5 gallon buckets from the house was not fun.  Fingers were frozen so bad it hurt.  Warmed up did a few other things and called it a day. It was -4 during all this, but the wind was not blowing and the sun was shining.

Good morning my fellow Keystone; Buckeye and Empire State, FishUSA Bloggers.  It's a beautiful morning here in my little piece of The Pennsylvania Wilds.
 
OAT hovering at 28 degrees Fahrenheit with a gentle wind blowing  out of the North.  Still dark outside my windows but it appears, in the dawns early light, to be snowing in reminiscence of the 'proverbial cow and flat rock'.  Looking at the real time radar, it will continue to do so til about 11:00 AM my time.
 
As for those to my north and east, it appears the 'cow and flat rock syndrome' is taking place,in real time, and looks to be in the form of a different type of precipitation.
 
Stay dry, be safe and think spring.
 
PS. Stay off the roads if yinz can and let the salt shaker operators get-r-done.   

We had about 3" already on the ground last night before this one started, a foot now, and it is coming down about 3" per hour, predicted to stay at this intensity until noon then taper off until 5 PM (which says we'll end up with more than the upper limit 16" of the forecasts I heard last night).  We are petitioning City Council to have Rochester renamed East Palermo or East Parish, which ever is not taken!LOL  Will be enjoying some snowshoeing this PM to clear paths for the dog and the postman.  Had hoped to hit ice on Honeoye today, it was safe at the South end yesterday, and even Canadice was looking like a couple of more days would allow some jigging, but now it looks like it will be a chimera by the weekend!  But there will be chrome in the LO tribs when this one melts off!

Snow, ice, freezing rain, rain.  Things are a mess but improving as the temperature rises.  A brief power outage this morning around 7:00 am.  Some localized flooding but not too bad.  Once this front moves through the weather should be decent for a few days.
 
I may try to shake off some of my cabin fever by taking a ride to the OSEG outdoors show in West Springfield Ma this weekend.  Perhaps stop at Cabela's in East Hartford on the way home.
 

I've been shoveling and roof raking since 06:30 to the extent I can at 64.9 years young, and I'm still not keeping up.  18-20" in the back yard right now, I've taken close to 15" off the roof and its ready to go again!  Did I mention that I also hate snow!
 
Ice fishing sled has come in handy for moving snow from the roof and around the house out to the back yard, probably all it will see use for this season.   Travel Advisories for all area counties, massive problems out here in WNY!

We got about 6+ or so inches of the wet heavy stuff that keeps the form of the plow when you push it . Got some freezing rain and some real rain. Lots of flooded streets in the cuse

twobob
Lots of snow here for sure.
18 inches at least in my driveway.
Lucky shoveling this stuff isn't adviced for the aging.
Not even a young buck  such as yourself.
 
Shoveled enough to get the car into the driveway  and past the sidewalk.
Done! 

I do a little then rest a little, and I had a lot of help with the heavy stuff the plow left, as Bobby O came by with his plow an got the apron and up the hill a little.  If I don't rake the roof, I'll be up there on a ladder with an ice pick hacking away the ice that will form.  Thank Heavens it has stopped, as have I, with my rubber band arms!  But I can understand how a decrepit old _____ like you could wait until the weekend thaw melts it off!  


 

Got up to 54 yesterday and that along with the heavy rain the driveway cleared completely of all the slop.So I did not have to touch the shovel or blower!Now we are going to dry out for a few days so my best friend and I can take a few walks.

Did she come with a 14 footer and  a 10 horse on a trailer? LOL!
