Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

We just entered August but the weather feels like we are in the middle of September already in MN. I am not sure what kind of winter we will have but hopefully it will be shorter than 2012-2013 season. I hope I am mowing in November and grilling outside. I am ready as you all are too.

well here is SnowDay1

it gets technical but the center of the country is in for "copious amounts of snow"

Good thing I have the Toro 2 stroker.

No hurry for snow here.  I can wait for at least after Thanksgiving.

Winter came here last night.  First snowblowing with the Honda.  Lotsa highways closed or not recommended for travel.  But it was a nice morning to blow snow here.

Snow is here now.  Time to put away the lawn mower and stock up on winter gas.

It's also time to change the air in my tires to winter air.  :)

This has been one of the longest winters in New Brunswick , Canada Starting in early December with very cold temperatures -20 C Then the snow began with storms of 12 inches or more in Dec, Jan , Feb and now March So far, I have used my Husqvarna 27 inch, 1450 Briggs , Hydro Gear Hydrostatic, snowblower 18 times and most of those times were major storms, drifting snow, 3-4 feet at the end of driveway. The snowblower has worked perfectly , but I am glad that most of our storms are over, I hope Royster
