Geos Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I think the cold even broke Geos. It's like he's gone negative. Guessing he'll still be pumping that 8 " thumper for Easter. After I fell on the ice last night, yeah - the cold has broke me! Easter is late this year, doubt there will be snow around, lol! Maybe in the U.P.

snowlord81 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Waiting on the snow here. Was just out and saw a ton of blowing snow. Worst I've seen all winter so far. If the winds stay high tonight with 3-4 inches of snow it could look pretty wild out there in the morning. Going to try to stay up for the snow.

cyclone77 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Snow doing it's best to avoid this area so far. 1-2" looking more like 3/4-1 1/4" now. Temps pushing freezing just west, ratios should be pretty crappy. Really wasn't too amped up for this event anyway so no biggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFF Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Have a few drifts on our street which are the same height as those but have made the county Rd. a one lane goat trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Shot this video of blowing snow earlier before the sun went down. Watch the car just get swallowed up near the end. Intense! Nice video. Nothing quite like that here! Worst spot from drifting was a 100 foot stretch with 1-3" of snow on the road. Visibility was never cut that drastically.
