Ok, here are some pics from around midnight - yes I am crazy and decided to put the snow shoes on and go slogging through the snow. It's real quiet outside except for the wind. Besides, I need to shovel one of the doors in case we needed to get out in an emergency (and the Hamers are in the non-attached garage !!!). I'll post more tomorrow, but it is still coming down pretty heavy and fast out there. BTW - the last pic is my current view :cool:

Morning,

My head hurts! Anyway we got just over a foot. Nothing compared to some. Wife is nagging me to get outside and blow the crap around. Maybe after my 2nd coffee? Lots of drifts and it was a foot up the sliding door. Can't get out the front door at all. And some actually call this fun? My back hurts just looking at it!

Our little dog needed to be rescued after jumping into a drift over her little legs could handle. Wife pulled her out before I could get a pic. Well I better get out there!

Got over two feet here so far. This pic was last night at 11 plowing my driveway but of course I have to do it again. More pics to come once I get out again. Oh and knock on wood - I still have power And stove keeping up just fine even with the wind battering the house!

How much did you get up on West hill?​
Really hard to tell with the drifts. Plows going by now up the hill. Going 30 feet then backing up and getting a running start again. Looks pretty deep from where I'm sittin'

The local new just gave a snow total for my town of just a tick under 34". Looks like we still have a few more hours to go as well. Tough to measure at my house with all this wind.
 
The pool is 52" high and the garage is 60". Yes that snow is at the roof and the wind was not coming in from that side. I guess it's time to shovel. Oh boy....

Damn, that sure is a lot of snow. We are currently in San Diego, but are scheduled to fly back home tomorrow. Hopefully the mess will be cleaned up and we will be able to get back. I have been checking CL&P's outage map, and my town is sitting at about 21% without power, but it can't tell me if my house has power or not.

I set the dino fuel thermostat at 50 degrees before leaving, and I sure am hoping that we don't come home to flooded house due to frozen pipes.

We had a car service drop us at Bradley, but I reserved a Tahoe with Hertz to ensure we can get back home.
