Had 44" of snow sitting on my deck. Had a snow drift in front of the house that was about 20ft tall, 2 blocks long, and about 60ft wide at it's base. I had to dig through that sucker to get to work.  |
We had the blizzard of '78 here. I think the last time it was really bad was late 80s maybe. Winters have been mild for a long time versus when I was growing up. Hell, we had 10' piles on the sides of the roads as a norm in the early 80s. We would toss snow balls over them and try to hit cars lol
