It’s here, no more afternoon cruises. Good news is we can start on the projects now and by spring the Eagan police will have forgotten about Jon

Looks like it’s just getting started here in Eagan, we have 3” already.

Report in.

We could use a little wind - this is the stuff that snaps branches & power lines!

I’m getting ready to go out and test-drive my new Toro convertible, same old snow blower; I just installed a new cab. My driveway always seems to be at the center of the vortex, regardless of the direction I point the chute the snow always comes back in my face.

It looks like we have had 10’ here, waiting on the winds that are suppose to start blowing.

Blew the driveway twice. Right after the secnd time, a friend stopped by with his Mercedes. He made it up my slightly inclined driveway fine but once in park, it slid all the way back down from the slight glaze of snow still there. Wasn't worth salting since it was still snowing, but shocked him for sure.

14" total here. I took a pic at 10 pm last night with a ruler and it was 13" then. Got another 1" overnight. I plowed the driveways yesterday at 11 am and then went to Centerville until 5pm. My car dragged snow into the garage, it was so deep again...rolleyes 8" fell from 11am to 5 pm.

I think we got about 2" - 3" or so... The first half was wet and heavy, then the rest of it was light and fluffy.

 I had a close look at your snowblower last night and given it's spotless condition, I don't believe it has ever been used and is just a prop like everything else in your freakishly clean man cave.  Be honest, you made the Mrs. shovel didn't you?
