Just finished two days of hand shoveling. Wind just pushed the crap against the front hedges.

I am sorry guys but I have seen 20 storms bigger than this where I live.
I'm sure the guys in Worcester an Western MA will agree. Just not that big of a storm.

I agree just haven't seen this much in such a short time frame in a while. The ice storm a couple years ago was far more destructive. But I pulled into my shop to plow Friday night and the snow was over the plow. Spent 4 hours there and it barely looked like I went on Saturday morning. A lot of my snow was drifted snow so that added to my problem. I have never had the 4wd motor get frozen due to it being below the snow. This time it did.

I live in Orange CT about 3 blocks from Milford CT that got 38 inches. I had around the same.
Not a lot of wind, no trees down, no erosion and did not lose power. But 38 f 'in inches of snow? The prior record for 120 years was 28 inches and you beat that by 10 inches? Biggest snow I have ever seen in my 58 years. I went out Friday night in the height of the snow and was like an old movie where the guy is caught in an Alaskan Blizzard. Crazy snow.

I grew up in Derby, right over the Orange line. How does the snow compare to the bliz of 78? I thought we had over 3 feet then? I was only 9 yrs old so I may be over exagerating.

We live in the NW corner of RI. Worcester snow belt. Blizzard of 78, 54" of snow with 14' drifts. Drifts up to the gutters on the houses. They used a road grader with a 12' V-plow to open my road.
This was good storm but we have had bigger that they didn't forecast.
