Sorry to hear Mark, my condolences to the family.

10+" of wet heavy sand and it's still coming down, governor goofy has called out the national guard as the roads are so bad, some parts over 15" and still coming down.

Freeways are stop and go, people going out of their way to prove they don't know how to drive..again.

Gonna have to be careful clearing the sidewalk/driveway off tomm, heart attacks and heavy snow seem to go hand and hand.

Stan, looks like you got it worse than we do up here??

Evenin Greg, Russ, Lou, OG, AlW, Moldy, Bob, Doc and CuzAl!

Ended up on 6 calls today. Didn't get to much Steady State stuff. Which is a damn shame since things are starting to get backed up and fall behind

Gengha Al may have a snow thrower you can use.

Got a plow on the ATV and a Ariens blower, plus a wife who likes to shovel sand.

Try some Seafoam or Lucas injector cleaner, plus run non oxygenated gas if your not now.
Seems to ure most of them.

Howdy Mark, Greg, Russ, Lou, Marcus, Al, Moldy, Doc and Al.

Rain has given way to dense fog and mid 30s. Tonight will be bad. Ice.

Supposed to be heaviest farther south, including my area, but I'd say there's maybe 5" on the road. Barely 2" on my truck; but it's wet and heavy, may be compressing from it's own weight. All alone, wouldn't bother me to drive in it, but with other cars out there, would take an emergency to get me outta the house.

AL,
Sorry to hear of your sand. We are just past the western edge of the storm.
Honestly we have no new sand, just wind.

O'Mark - prayers for the family .......
