pfftttt. Tonnage of light powder stuff.

I want that heavy wet snow that I so fondly remember so I can see how things benchmark.
Ha, I'm sure the latter prefers the powder...

We're supposed to get 12-18" here, I was out blowing about 3 hours ago and we had about 8" or so of pretty wet snow. The compact 22 handled that quite well, and the subaru sx17 had more power than I thought it would. Was easily outdoing my old 5.5 Tec L-head. Been hearing some sleet on the window the the last few hours so it's bound to get heavier. The EOD had a few piles just under the top of the bucket  16-18"? from the plow in spots and no problem at all throwing at least 1015' keeping the chute aiming down due to the wind. Few more inches on the ground since the last time i was out but I will wait till morning to fire it up again.

Trouts: You look more than ready for the 2010 blizzard with your army of fine snowblowers.  I hope we are done with the snow in Minnesota so I can wash and wax my pretty snowblower and put it away for the next winter.
