It's been a little cold here, 20's at night and 40's during the day but it did get to 53 this afternoon. It's supposed to warm up again into the 60' by Thursday and again Friday, but back down again into the 40's on Saturday. It's that time of year, the cold weather will win out. They had some lake effect snow up in extreme northwest Jersey the other night, but no signs of snow down here in the southern climes.
Do you get a lot of freezing temps and snow in Thessaloniki, Tritium?
I did consider one of those walk behind style blowers, far more powerful. That would clear them off but leave me with piles I need to pick up and do something with. I tried bagging them one year and ended up with almost 100 bags, 70 gallon bags and stuffed pretty tight, of leaves, upset sanitation men and a sore back. I did put a new set of blades in the mower and it made a significant difference, plus they get pretty chopped up and mulched which reduces the volume quite a bit.
