campy Online • • Upload & Sell: On p.1 #1 · Blizzard When I turned 60 a couple of years ago my kids wanted to know what I wanted for my birthday and at the time I wanted a $1500 lens, but I got a snowblower instead. I tried shoveling with an old lens but found the snowblower to be much more practical for 2 feet of snow. I think they made the right choice. Feb 09, 2013 at 04:43 PM

We're about half way through the blizzard(s). The first one came in last night from Toronto and the one we're getting now came from Boston. Thanks campy. Feb 09, 2013 at 05:05 PM

Wobble Offline • • • Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #4 · Blizzard How much snow is equated to 1 inch of rainfall? I have heard that 1 inch of rain was like 1 foot of snow. Not counting drifts, how deep is the snow? Ya'll be safe in the frozen North land. Feb 09, 2013 at 05:13 PM

rscheffler Offline • • • • Upload & Sell: On p.1 #5 · Blizzard Sure could have used a snowblower yesterday! Unfortunately everyone in about a 10 or so house radius on the street shovels, rather than blows. I think I spent about an hour digging out the driveway, car, and the 3-foot high berm of snow at the end of the drive thanks to the plow (but at least they plowed promptly this time!). That said... it was also great day for a walk in the woods: Feb 09, 2013 at 05:23 PM

Do I owe you a nickel each time or can I simply say "TM PetKal"? As for the Army, Rob Ford may want to consult his speed dial list; maybe the phones haven't been updated since Mel Lastman left office... Feb 09, 2013 at 08:13 PM

Not counting drifts, how deep is the snow? Ya'll be safe in the frozen North land. It depends. Rule of thumb here in Boston area is 1 inch of rain = 10 inches of snow. But last night away from the coast it was 20F, so the moisture content was low and you would get more than 10 inches. Cape Cod stayed close to 32F so their snow was pretty wet. Here in Saugus, MA we probably got around 24 inches, but in places my drifts are over three feet. And then there are places around the house that are bare. Mark Feb 09, 2013 at 09:37 PM

jpeter Offline • • Upload & Sell: On p.1 #15 · Blizzard 31 inches at my house, Me working my way to the front door, taken with a lens worth more than the snowblower. And yes I am wearing chest waders, as my snow boots are in Idaho. Actually a great choice for attire for the day. JP Feb 09, 2013 at 10:50 PM
