Haven't been outside since it started, but looks like at least 4" here. They're saying at least another 12.

Only got 4 inches total here, lame. And that's the most we got here this year, super lame. Still waiting on another big one like 93, 96, or 03.

Little 118 left over.. I did happen to drive by the station on the pike and pick up a couple gallons of the 110 leaded stuff they had there

The snowblower runs so good on it, I'm afraid to go back to pump gas.... the ethanol raises hell with the small engine carb's so bad, that I think the race fuel is why these things NEVER, and I mean NEVER give me any problems! So.... in goes the race fuel LOL.

For the 10 gallons a year I go thru with my snowblower, lawnmower and weed whacker, it doesn't kill me to spend 10 bucks a gallon for it. I know that seems retarded... but I'd rather spend the couple bucks on the good fuel for the little engines, then have one of them not work when I need it. If that snowblower didn't start today, I'd have had a heart attack trying to shovel all that crap.

We got well over 2 feet in Wallingford. It sucked since my work had a delayed opening for 10am and never pushed it back. My wife's place and a good majority of businesses closed. I got stuck trying to get there and I am very aggrivated.

So I had to burn sick time and we get a very limited amount.

Plus my father-in-law burned his clutch plowing so snow removal sucked.

Got just about 2ft, had to go clean up my outlaws place too (in tropics...they have 2 driveways)

I had enough snow for me this year.
Makes me glad I got a little 4x4 again though, blast right through this ****.

I can honestly say that driving a 2500 diesel pickup, that now has a 33 inch tire on it, really is enjoyable. I go right thru all of it, 2 feet, blah that's not enough to stop it. I went out for a ride around yesterday morning just to see how theroads were once i got done cleaning up my driveway... and nothing was plowed. I went up one hill in new britain that didn't even have a set of car tracks in it, no problem truck doesn't care one bit. It's heavy enough, and has enough ground clearance and an aggressive enough tire now, that it will dig until there's traction and go. 4 wheel posi, never hurts either.

Go ahead let it snow some more, I'll get where I have to. I do enjoy the aspect that it's made for what loooks like a permanent parking ban in new britain this year, all the asshat's are actually keeping their junk in the driveways now.... about god damn time on that.
