Well, we were unfortunate with this big snow storm yesterday here in the East. We got a total of 1 inch! LOL. I really like to get one good snow storm of at least 12 inches or more. Me and the kids like to make large snow piles and tunnel through them! I know, call me crazy. Hope you all had a great day and got some flying in!

They called for snow here, we got it, I wouldn't even start my tractor to plow an inch of standing powder....ain't worth the gas I'd burn. Personally, it ain't snow less you're looking at 18-24" standing....that's where it STARTS. Real snow (lake effect I grew up with), 30-40" at a crack....man, that was snow....I shoveled a LOT of it by hand. Now I use a Ford 861 PowerMaster with a 5spd manual, front bucket and 8ft grader blade behind. When we get 20"+, then it becomes a little like work.
