I live 1000' from the warning area line. There is no snow happening, the wind is calm (inversion) and the phone keeps going nuts for this blizzard alert. But that storm will hit me tonight, and I'll get about 2". I think it's time to turn off weather alerts.

Never disregard those weather alerts because storms can change course like the one that hit us over the weekend. I had planned on installing the plow mount on the truck today but was forced to do it on Saturday in constant snow and 20°F weather so I could plow when the storm ended. Moral of the story I was prepared when the snow started but was by the time it stopped.

Yeah, you guys got 8" or so right? My friend lives on Long Island. He was telling me about it. No snow plow here, just a ghetto 4x4 truck with flat tire and I tow a huge I beam behind me. It works.....

 

[SteveS45]

We got 8" on my part of Long Island but more East got even more. What messed me up was the original forecast of maybe an inch changing to snow showers. Got up Saturday morning and was having coffee when my GF called said it was snowing and the forecast called for 3 to 5 inches which changed to 4 to 8 inches when I turned on the Weather Channel. Immediately dressed in layers and went out to start the installation. Wound up with a temporary control switch install and no plow lights wired up but since I was starting at sunrise did not need the plow lights.

I am the private plow contractor who clears the driveways because the City or Town plows block them up! Imagine how ...... I when they do it to me?
