X100000000!
They are calling for 10-20 more inches here starting verrrrry soon. I have nowhere left to put the snow

 

bring it on!!

 

well the tacoma did GREAT in the last storm. loved it. drove the whole time. used it to shuttle employees back and forth from the hospital. but woke up this morning and the truck was making some real weird loud noises from the driveline. Sounded a whole lot like U-joints. clicking that increased speed as truck speed increased. I checked very carefully for ice that could be stuck somewhere but found nothing. it's pretty much all melted under there anyway. Drove straight to dealer so they could figure it out and all they had left to rent was a prius. So here i am with my truck in the shop, a hybrid in my driveway, and the second perfect storm coming.. not a happy camper. (oh and last snowstorm we got like 6 weeks or so ago, the security immobilizer went and they had to replace that computer so i was driving a yaris for 3 days) truck's only got 33k miles on it. oh and its starting to make the throwout bearing noise!!!

 

Man! I feel sorry for you! Snow coming and no Taco! The only thing worse that I could think of is all package stores blowing up before I could get there!

I hope you make out okay....

 

A guy from accuweather was on the radio and said Cape Cod was gonna have a snowicain. Sounds like a hell of a blizzard.

 

Philly is forecasted for another 1-2 feet...

 

How's everyone doing?

My husband's business closed for today and I called off. We got up at 5am to start snow-blowing/shoveling the 7" that had accumulated overnight. Plow didn't go by until later.... and we were back out to clean up at 9am (another 4" or so on the ground at that time). We just got back out to clean up again....and another 10"+ since 9am. And it ain't stoppin.......

This is my husband...he's 5'10" tall. This is the snow bank at the end of the driveway. All this was accumulated from last weekends storm (16") and today.

My gawd....is it ever gonna end?


Keep having to go out and clean off the satellite dish. Priorities ya know!!

Hope ya'll are safe & sound through all this!

 

The wife and i just got home. No issues what so ever driving around. I talked her into taking a ride up to East Coast Honda cycle center to look at the CanAm Renegade 800. She gave me the ok for the quad, plow and the Tack system. Now im wanting MORE snow!

 

I can't really tell how much new snow we got here. It's blowing around too much. Uncle Sam gave me another day off but I'll gladly go to work if it means this snow goes away.
I saw on the news earlier DC broke the old 1899 snow record, it's now at 54.9".
On the other hand, Dulles Airport, which is a few miles from me, has recorded 72" so far this winter.
Is it spring yet?

 

CT gets nothing again. Been snowing most of the afternoon but we only got like an inch so far. School was cancelled for nothing.

 

new look for my ride.white inlayed wheels and new mud flaps from all this friggen crap.

 

I am loving this snow. The Tacoma is handling it really well.

 

That is my windshield wiper sticking up through the snow. I had them flipped up off the windshield.

This is a cool snow drift showing the snow that was blown onto the bottom of my truck.

Lost power on 6 Feb 10 (and part of my mind) and decided to grill out. No power for about 36 hours. We were lucky, others were out for days. It was a cold night though. We (wife, kids and I) had a good time grilling. I think the neighbors had a laugh too.

 

I'm at college, but my parents sent me a couple from Northern Virginia:

 

Heres a copy of the weather report I received on Wednsday!!

 

Awesome!!! I gotta get out there and clean my grill out.....It's been 2 days since I've used the grill and its driving me nuts!! I think my neighbors are used to me grilling in the winter...I do it all the time! 30+" of snow ain't gonna stop me!

 

lmao.thats funny.i got the same thing.
