Jimbo Posted February 13 #115103 Share Posted February 13 1 hour ago, MJSailors said: Snowy day here on Eastern LI. Schools are closed. The plow just went up and down the street. Our local pharmacy called about a delivery that was scheduled for today but has been cancelled. Will deliver tomorrow. Totally understand. But, Amazon just made a delivery. Totally unnecessary given the snow in the driveway and front walk. I feel sorry for the Amazon drivers being sent out in these conditions. Hoping everyone experiencing the storm is safe and warm. Wishing everyone a good day. MJ🙋🏻♀️ From what I saw Long Island is suppose to have the highest totals, Pretty close to 1 foot or more !. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to hand shovel the driveway as the wet sh!t kept clogging the snowblower. My DH and son both worked from home today because we were supposed to get that mess too. We figured it would be a shoveling storm and too much for me to do alone. I usually clear enough for them to get into the driveway and they do the rest. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting for the snow plow to go by and block the end of the driveway. I'll have to shovel that out before the temperature drops and it freezes tonight. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted February 13 #115107 Share Posted February 13 4 hours ago, Sunshine3601 said: Did it start snowing there? I attempted to get to work. Roads got bad quick around me. I got stuck ontop of buckingham mountain and ended up sliding down the hill and hit a street sign pole and mailbox. My passenger side mirror now hanging off. Made it home slowly. Will check out damage when it stops snowing. Tomorrow I'll stop by the mailbox house. From what I saw my car got the worst of it. Their box was still standing. 1 hour ago, Sunshine3601 said: I'm okay. Besides the broken / hanging side mirror assembly. I do have scratches down the whole the side. Probably from street side pole. Cars can be fixed. I'm just glad I didn't hit anyone else. I'm hoping i didnt mess up the mailbox. I will leave them a note tomorrow when I pass by On way to work. On my way home there were cars stuck in various places. I was so happy when I pulled in my driveway. Eric was oblivious to the snow. He was still in bed when I got home. Living retired life to the fullest🤣 It has stopped snowing. We just finished shoveling our driveway and neighbors. To all shovelers it's a wet heavy snow, Be Careful. Sorry to hear about your experience. Retirement sounds really appealing after today’s drive to work. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that earlier. All they say is it was an elderly lady. I think reporters are getting too young. Anytime I see a story that mentions an “elderly” person, then they mention an age, they are now referring to someone my age. To me, elderly will always be someone older than me. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBE4 Posted February 13 #115109 Share Posted February 13 3 hours ago, Jimbo said: Very Pretty, looks like heavy snow too. What are temps for the following days, wondering if the snow will stick around or melt pretty fast. Nothing here in Virginia at all, beautiful bright sunny day about 45 degrees. It is heavy & wet. About 12-13 inches was the final total. Temps for the 5 days are mid-to-high 30's daytime & mid-20 night time but with the longer days & stronger sun, most of it might be gone by next week. We won't be seeing 40's until middle of next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend’s husband drove his car into his neighbor’s bedroom and they referred to him as an elderly man on the news . I was offended because we are the same age. It’s all relative. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else has a voodoo doll but me? I always enjoy watching the antics on Bourbon Street, especially later at night. Here is a live stream link if anyone is interested. https://www.earthcam.com/usa/louisiana/neworleans/bourbonstreet/?cam=bourbonstreet Thank you for the reminder & link. Now that my driveway & roads are clear, I need get some of my kind of Voodoo. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needed to do half-cuts & it worked fine although it took me twice as long. But I got my 10,000 steps in! This is the setup I had back in NJ. I did a rubber flapper mod on the blower. It could blow wet snow and and even blow water out of full of water puddles. See how far it shoots the snow out. The tractor I have know is bigger then this one, only need a snow blade on my current tractor to push snow here in Virginia. Sold the set up you see in the Video before before we moved to Virginia. Here is how you would make your walk behind blower more powerful. Rubber bolted to impeller so there is no gap.

Rare bobmacliberty Posted February 13 #115118 Share Posted February 13 4 hours ago, lenquixote66 said: I am currently watching Obliterated on Netflix .One season ,8 episodes.It is a raunchy comedy /action movie that should be rated somewhere between R and X. Perfect description. I've been watching it one episode at a time, several days apart, when there's nothing better to watch. It's entertaining, but not binge worthy.

Depending on the car, brace yourself for the price of a mirror. I spent $1,200 on one, installed. Granted, it's one of those high tech mirrors with Blind Spot monitoring, heated & dim-able, built in turn signal and folds when you lock the car. Still, that's a far cry from the $20 "sport" mirrors I used to buy at Sears Auto Stores in the 1980's & bolt onto the car myself. Now I sound elderly. 😄 2 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond probably has one of them. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond probably has one of them. I am glad you weren’t hurt but I would at least report it to the police so they aren’t investigating a hit and run. The homeowner could have contacted them since you didn’t leave a note. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
