Staged Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 What's the deepest amount of snow you think your plow can take at once? A foot is pushing it. I just have an f250 with a 8 ft blade. Gotta keep up with it but we have huge parking lots we do for government contracts and it takes 5 hours to clear everything lol. I'll be plowing Fri - Sunday easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 do people honestly go 12:1 right off the bat? 10:1 is the safest, right? and hope it's better? I mean, yeah at 12:1, I would get 30". but come on... 12:1 the whole storm? no wayI agree but 12:1 could be a good compromise. I would think ratios would increase on the back end of the storm to as high as 15:1 but be as low as 10:1 at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Maybe InstantWxMaps? For once WxBell is more conservative. You still get like 26-27". I'm not worried about MBY at all, this was a great run for me. Guess I am just trying to stay conservative in these snow amounts... honestly, I've just been focusing on QPF anyways. Solid 2.5 IMBY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid 2.5 IMBYOnce you start getting totals that high compaction is a huge issue. 26 28 34 inches all look the same and pack fast. Add drifting and measuring will be a nightmare.
