Snowmaggedon 2016

[jymmiejamz]

I would say we have at least 20" with up to 40" drifts.

Official total for Williamsburg is 27"

I thought this was cool (watching from a warm couch in Az):

Damn, guys. Awesome. It just pissed rain all day here.

Now the fun part. 300' driveway to clear by hand for Tamy's Jetta. Maybe if I make sad faces at the neighbors one will bring his tractor over and clear it.

We got about 1/2-3/4" of ice and a dusting of snow. But honestly, I would have traded snow for it in a heart beat. All the ice took out the power lines and we are not expected to have power back until mid day Monday. We also might have lost a few trees, I know there are a lot fewer branches on most of them. It's just down right annoying.

Official 35.5" in Somerset, PA.
Learned in early days of off-roading with a CJ-5 which I buried, they ain't snow mobiles and get stuck.

Don't be such a pussy. Our driveway is 1100 feet and has over 30" on it with higher drifts. Kelly's Jetta is staying put for a while. I refuse to plow although my buddy from a few miles away wants to drive over in his Bobcat UTV. He just wants pizza and beer. No way that thing would make it over here.

The official total according to NWS for my area is 39".

I'm drinking a Corona on my back porch with flip flops on. About to head out in my convertible.

Your killing me. We didn't get any snow here in northern Illinois, But its like 20 F. Tucson is about my favorite place and I could use a couple weeks down there about now.

 

[D Chapman]

You guys are cute. I cleared all 3,900' of my driveway in about an hour while drinking hot rum. Got the neighbors driveway as well. After I took the Series for a few laps, of course. I'm still convinced a skid steer is the best tool a person with any amount of property can buy.

That little Series will plow through some snow. As light as it is I was very surprised. No lockers, just open diffs and some MT tires. Zoom zoom.

 

[Drillbit]

It snowed a foot here. I think my shop and one or two gas stations were the only businesses open in the whole town Friday. Since the bars weren't open I grilled out.

 

[jymmiejamz]

I found a 4-5" snow drift inside my Defender this morning.

 

[discostew]

Why doesn't that surprise me Jymmie.

 

[garrett]

I'm not worried about getting out. It will be another 48 hours or more before VDOT gets to our road anyhow. Until then I'm making pizzas and eating pie.

 

[emmodg]

Skid steers ARE the best piece of equipment to own! Handy as hell!

 

[Nomar]

I think your doors or seal must be lacking something, Jimmy!

22" here

[chris snell]

My truck leaks much worse than Jimmy's. Getting the doors right on a Defender is black magic.

 

[fsflip13]

4-5 inches in Tennessee

 

[jymmiejamz]

My truck was rebuilt at some point, so nothing lines up properly.

 

[discostew]

That's the way they came out of the factory Jymmie. Like Chris said it's black voodoo shit to get them right. Hinges in or out,up or down. Pulling the body out to get the hinge to move out or pushing the body in to get it to go the other way. Lots of time involved.
