Hi there Sherri,
You know something, I think that was the most professionally written weather report ever to have been posted in this forum. Thanks again for making it snow here, I wasn't even aware we were getting snow until late last night. Have to go prep the Toro.

I copied and posted from Environment Canada. It's still down around Florida so I guess it's moving pretty quick to make it by tomorrow.

Looks like we only got about 4". I still used the snowblower because this was the coldest it has been since I made the modifications to my carburetor. I really wanted to see how it ran in 24 degrees. Engine ran flawless and started on the first pull.

The blizzard I so hoped for decided on an coastal cruise instead of touring the inland. Oh it did snow - but not nearly enough. Can't wait until the next one!

We got 7" but that makes over a foot in the last week. Not too shabby! Snowblower is earning its keep this winter. Monday/Tuesday does not look like much of an event in our forecast so far. -Bob
