You guys are so lucky!
Here is how ill equipped we are:
This is the I-10 bridge over Pensacola Bay a week or two ago when we got 1/4 to 3/8" ice storm and dusting of snow.
They closed the bridge and 160 miles of I-10 for two full days.
No salt, no sand, no belly blade trucks to deal with this.

We had about 8-10 inches early this am, but the rain has caused it to turn into 5-6 inches of slush. I just came in from plowing the 3/4 mile of lane and 10 driveways in our development. Took about 90 minutes. Now I'm glad I put the chains on the Ford, 5 inches of slush is heavy. It's 35 and raining a little now. Didn't get a chance to use the snowthrower on the 1450.

Very light now but is supposed to pick up again with winds and drifting.

Unless I miscounted, it is day 60 of snow cover here in the Greater Cleveland, OH area.

"Snow cover" is defined as 2+" of snow on the ground.

Hey, Al "I invented the Internet" Gore, where the heck is all your global warming ? ? ? ?

Back to the original question of want some snow? Not just NO!, but (colorful language deleted) NO!

Guys

I think I'm back up north. Haven't had to deal with snow like this for a while. I am glad I kept my snow weapon when I moved to nice warm VA. Here are some pics of the fun I had today. Just FYI the blade is 24" tall. Not sure a blower would have not been a plug fest. Just damp enough to be a PITA. Glad I learned how to deal with this crap from my NE days. Only clean pavement in town is in front of my driveway LOL. Poor little Bota sucked up a 1/2 tank of diesel

Sam, you asked for this. "Bring it on" I think were your actual words.

We had some thunder this afternoon with sleet. Always sounds funny to get thunder when it's snowing.

Cleared over a mile of road today if I count all the driveways.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
