I need to fix my ariens because my dad's dinosaur blower doesn't have independent rear wheel, fighting that thing every time I use it, but at least I got a blower, would suck to do my driveway and walks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Cub Cadet 3 X 26 3 years ago with heated grips. They're more than adequate. You feel the heat coming through your gloves even on a day like this! Don't know how old your machine is but you may be able to buy a set and add them. I know you can buy them for Cub Cadet machines that came without heated grips. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cold and wind is brutal. Should have worn gloves lol i couldnt agree more i was just out there for about an hour and a half and i think i have frost bite. Measuring is near impossible. The best reasonable estimate i have is 7" from measuring 6 to 8" in many spots that i considered to have "relatively low" drifting... I'm fine with whole numbers in events like this, not super accurate but its really impossible. These were some of the strongest winds i've seen in a nor'easter here in quite a long time. Sustained at 15-25 and gusts to 30-40 the whole day. I can't even imagine what it looked like on the outer cape and the islands. ACK was sustained in the 40s most of the day with gusts to 70 with SN/+SN. That's a real blizzard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My observation of snowfall all night and day, the Models, the QPF, the DRIFTS.... all suggest we ought to have at least 15 inches. The ground is erratic and lots of man made things like cars around. I went into the open fields nearby and took a measurement average. I suspected these fields are robbed of snow that ends up in drifts, but the strict rules mandated my action. After all, there are some parts of the fields with only a couple inches covering too in contrast to the 2-3 feet drifts. I know if there was no wind we would have much more....

NotSureWeather Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Well that’s it here. Was honestly amazing. I don’t think hit blizzard criteria but it must of been really damn close. NWS says 18.5” for New Bedford, all the locations are southern NBMA though, really think north end did better, maybe by a few inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said to you earlier, get 3 more or so fluffy inches and there on out you'll have the lower end of the scale of the 18-24" and upper end of the 12-18".

CoastalWx Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I was unsure of the 24”+ totals yesterday. Mid level low look was good, but wasn’t sure if we’d get that real stationary band like we saw. I thought maybe the forcing would be more transient and not as intense. Just goes to show you look out when they look good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No heated grips for me, but the power steering is a nice addition so you don’t have to wrestle with it You can add the heated hand grips. Last time I looked when I bought mine it was $79 or $89 dollars. Mine came with them. Was looking for a friend when I bought mine. Just looked now. $153.59. Outrageous!!!
