Almost 11 and counting thus far.

Do you have a yardstick?

Sounds like I'm a winner, although Accuweather is still saying we're getting more overnight.  Either way, I should be drinking beer with you fools in the lot one day this weekend

Let me know what day you will be there and I will get your prize to you....

It didn’t help that we lost over half an hour due to my laptop throwing the blue screen of death at least 6 times while I was screen sharing to let them edit the code. Consensus among the metro-e tech group is that it’s our sub-par serial-USB adapters that cause it

sounds like you need a macbook.

 

 

Also, 5.7" at philly airport seems about right. I probably got about 5" at my house before it switched over and started getting compacted.

Felt good to get on the XC skis again!....Snow was pretty easy to break trail through....Could get a nice kick/glide once I looped around to my tracks....

Ya, all the front platers at Blue all took covid tests before arriving, too.

I guess I could slip through since I don’t have a front plate...

[Ride Delaware ?]

I hope you are all able to take advantage of it tomorrow. Great storm, especially for early season.

PA isn’t enforcing any restrictions.  It’s the wild Wild West.  RideDE you should come up to Blue soon.

I joined that outage bridge for a bit since I was getting spammed every few minutes on the Bucks Headend disto and it connects to my SUR in Sellersville. What was the final fix on the Juniper MEG?

What you get when you use that Juniper crap! 😃

Ok - probably Sunday and maybe tomorrow morning too, but I'll let you know.

You don't have to make a special trip though - if you weren't planning on riding this weekend, we'll catch up another time.  I should be up a few times around the holidays too

Got an inch or so of ice last night along with a dusting of snow on top. Went out to go to Wawa and tried scraping the windshield of the truck for about 5 minutes before giving up and walking up into town for way too overpriced coffee. The dusting/ice combo makes for a fun game of “am I going to slip and eat shit or can I walk here?” 

[RidgeRacer]

15 or so I'd say here. More where the snow drifted.

I saw Doug eat shit in JH so hard it hurt me.

Hows that new snowblower working out for you?

I’m damn surprised I didn’t injure myself.  They don’t use salt in JH.

Congrats, @PSUFly - the official bamboo measuring stick says 8.5”. There were 30” drifts and areas of grass showing. I wouldn’t say the storm was a bust, but it definitely did not meet expectations. 

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Did Toast give his measurement??   Yup right the second I post this lol

Im sure the ethanol gas has done a number on the carb.  i will fix it over Christmas break.  What engine is on it?

[RidgeRacer]

  What engine is on it?

Huh?

[AtomicSkier]

I have an Ariens ... love watching the people across the street labor trying to shovel this shit while I  do it one handed 😂

Oh....need to get out the picture book.  

      

If its number one, i probably have a carb kicking around the shop for it.  If its number 3, it probably needs a new carb, and even with a new carb it wont run right.  those engines are junk.

Thanks for the shout out!

I would say around 10" here.  I had the jeep parked across the end of the driveway...that's my "snowblower "...engage the lockers, put it in 4 Low and just mash the throttle.   blasted it through the snow banks around the mailbox to get that cleared up

My mailbox pile plan is a propane weed burner. We’ll see how that goes after work today
