1 ton of snow a minute?
Original Message   Jan 5, 2005 6:10 pm
Average snowfall is approximately 6 lbs per cubic foot, so, if there is a foot of snow on the ground & you have a 12" auger & 24" wide housing, you would need to go clear 166 feet in 60 seconds.

How many of you have been clearing 1 ton of snow a minute without even knowing it?

Jogo,

With luck it'll all be gone by Saturday otherwise I'll probably be dealing with a sheet of ice. Waited all htis time to use that snowblower & then not around when it finally snows. Oh well....

By the way, did you trade in your 1128 for the new 11528? I remember you had the 1128 last year. The 11528 is this year's model.
