Hi Cal,
It sounds like we might get some of that white s$#@ tonight and tomorrow. Have you figured out why we stay up here in the great white north? It makes my driving job so much easier. And God knows, if people don't get their liquor they just get testy! (me included)

Ya didn't tell me you drove a beer truck!
The county guys would probably plow your driveway for you if they knew.
I already put the stake markers by my driveway. Seems like the plow drivers like to use mailboxes as targets

Wow hope it doesn't make it all way over to Maryland! I did get the Clipper winterized today.

I don't actually deliver beer-I do the hard stuff. I've been doing it for over 38 years. Here is a picture of the new truck I got last December.

We got about 14" between Mon & Tues. Another 3" or so of lake effect snow Wed. It is all settled to about 12" now. Several inches of new lake effect forecast for tomorrow.

Sounds about seasonal. For those who wonder what lake effect snow is it's when the cold North winds blow over large bodies of water, ie. great lakes. Reference lower Michigan's west shore, upper Michigan's north shore and above all Buffalo, NY which probably holds all time records for lake effect white stuff

CC1000 (Dave in sunny Buffalo).
I don’t know if you were in the path ?
I hope all is well with family from the storm up there ?

My Mom and sister lives in Lancaster, so I know they got creamed by the storm. I talked to my sis briefly, she said it sucks !
Good thing my mom is on a cruise right now. I just hope her roof doesn’t cave-in
Yet my brother 4 miles away in Clarence only got a few inches of snow.
