What Does 10 or more of Snow look like?

**4 Dog Mother** · 02-15-2007, 10:10 AM

We received at least 10 inches of snow between Tuesday and Wednesday. The wind kept blowing it around so it made for very uneven snowdrifts which makes it much harder to decide the exact amount. Carl works in Toledo about 50 miles from here so he went to Amy's (Cincy's Mom) to stay while I stayed at home. Here are some of the pictures I took.

The van didn't completely disappear

How does an old lady get that much snow off her driveway?

Relies on the kindness of good neighbors who have snowblowers

He didn't get the walk done so Carl still has some work ahead of him

yup that is pretty much looks like HERE too!

now where are the dogs rolling in it?

And how did the dogs do with the snow?

The way the snow was blowing left an area in the back yard that was only about an inch deep for the first 2 1/2 feet outside the back yard. Thank God! I don't know what I would have done if the back yard was like the front where I couldn't even open the front door.

It didn't stop Snoopy

Dazzi didn't do bad but Pippi almost got lost in it.

Taggert likes the snow so he didn't mind going out

Jack abolutely doesn't like snow or cold so he was in and out so fast that I couldn't get any pictures of him!

Staci, I was shocked but none of them rolled in it. I think they are all getting too old! Pippi tried chasing them around the yard but she couldn't get anyone going. And she was too fast for me to catch any pictures of her. She started running in circles by herself. It was too funny!

That is crazy.

Excuse my ignorance (Florida girl here) but where do you shovel the snow to?

You put it on a HUGE pile somewhere near your driveway, out of your way so it can sit there till it melts in the Spring!

My hubby and I shoveled 18'' out of our driveway yesterday... the snowpile is over the mailbox!

Wow! We certainly didn't get that much here. Maybe 4 inches, but some of the drifts were about a foot.

Looks like the pups had fun!

**Pembroke_Corgi** · 02-15-2007, 01:42 PM

BRRRRRR! I remember what that looks like!! At least the dogs enjoy it.

**GreyhoundGirl** · 02-15-2007, 01:55 PM

Haha... the fields here got 32 inches. You should see the height of the drifts... It's been killer windy. We can't open the doors on one side of the house. :P

Looks like the pups had fun at least!

LOL Just be thankful you aren't in parts of New York. Some places got snow squalls up to 12 feet

yeah, we've been keeping an eye on that part of New York. My daughter, Christy (Dakotas mommy) will be moving to Fort Drum New York sometime during this next year - Her husband Brian has to be there March 10. It hasn't got quite as much - 37 inches the last time I looked - however - you have to drive near that 12 feet of snow. I don't think she will be getting much winter company!!! See you in the Spring, Kiddo, is what we will be saying!
