Well yesterday we got a good snow sotrm. Nothing like NY but I would say we have 10-12" with alot of drifts around 2ft+. These are some pics from today. County was declared a snow emergency, emergency travel only.

 

It wouldnt be so bad but it is so windy which is killing my eyes I am out there with my head almost all wrapped up.

We have 10" here in northern Kansas and it is drifting pretty bad. To make it worse the road graders seem to like pushing all of the snow in front of my driveway. Makes no sense to me since I am the only one of the street, but oh well atleast they are out doing their job.

plow went by me this morning and threw it half way into my driveway.

 

Just looked out back and had almost a 4 ft snow drift against the house/patio door. Not fun shoveling

And here I thought this 56 degree sunny weather was bad here in NC. :)

 

Well for some you can at least get some sled time in.

 

Everyone in the snow stay safe.

We're getting snow today here in Ottawa, about 5inches but with all the wind, well it piles up. But in the end, not a whole lot at all.

 

Toronto and the surrounding area got hit much harder, much like NY.

15" here from what the neighbor said the news showed. But the drifts...well I'll let the photos do the talking. Photo 1 is down the street where the drifts were 3/4 the height of the front doors. Photo 2 is the front of the house with the drifting and my efforts to deal with some of it. Photo 3 is looking East from my driveway.

I hope you all up north are doing ok. I have heard that parts of NY got over 10' of snow in the last week. Hope you all dig out before July 4th. Looks like our four weeks of winter will be coming to an end next week. By early March we are all thinking about golf and outdoor gatherings again..... :)

reminds me of christmas...went to colorado springs to visit my fiancees sister and brother-in-law. got snowed in on one of the many blizzards they have had. Here are some pics from Clayton, NM and Dalhart, Tx. Yes, the snow is half way up the light poles, and some drifts go to the top of buildings.

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
