Here in the Midwest, we periodically get these kind of snow storms, but Pam yours is one that would make even a Midwesterner gasp. The nice part about living in an area that does get frequent snow is that we are ready for it. The snow plows start warming their engines at the first few flakes whenever there is a storm warning. The major roads get taken care of first and then the side streets. Problem is every time one of the snow plows goes down the street, it will push up a pile right in front of your freshly shoveled (snow blowers used mainly) driveway.
Although we had blizzard conditions last Friday, it didn't leave much snow in the wake. The yard is white, but that is about it. I think the states to the east of us got our share and theirs as well. Sorry about that, but I don't miss the ordeal of trying to shovel to even open the back door and then a path so there is somewhere for the dogs to *go*. One year we had to use the driveway, which meant I had to go out with the dogs on leashes. It was awful because in addition to all that snow it was bitter cold.
You all try to stay safe. Don't overdo on the shoveling. Do a little bit at a time as with the cold it is very hard on the heart.
