Started snowing here in Fredericton, NB Canada, yesterday morning , snowed all day , all night and it is still snowing, but the snow is light and it has not been snowing very hard. We have about 8 inches
It is supposed to stop at noon today, maybe get 10 inches in all. I am waiting for it to stop and the plow goes by, before clearing the driveway and parking lot. It will be the biggest storm this winter.
It stopped snowing at 10:30 AM, about 10 inches. Only thing, the paper girl delivered the paper while it was snowing and I did not see it as she left it in the driveway and it got snowed over. I was just
approaching the EOD and I heard a strange sound , sort of like gravel in the snow. I immediartely released the auger clutch and stopped the engine and blower. I went around front and discovered the paper in the auger .
it had not yet gone to the impeller. So I pulled it out and all was well. If I had not heard the paper in the auger, and not stopped ,it would have been a real chore if it had got to the impeller and might have done some damage to the blower .
