How's you guys doin today? Stuck the tape measure in the fresh stuff both in front & back of the garage & it appeared to be < 2" in both spots to me. The warmest ( -1)  temp I seen startin out the day in a while too. It looked to me like Reb was getting hammered when WCCO news came on the air. Biggest total they had early was Faribault with 6.5" & still comin down.

[mike89]

I'm thinking 5 inches here..  hard to say with winds that there too..  got the sidewalk and roof done..  just plowing left for the most part...

[Gunner55]

Pretty calm here now, forecast says that's goin to change this afternoon. See how far we can get before that.

[Rebel SS]

Gonna be a day long affair, I'm afraid. Roof too.    Have a neighbor buddy lives a block away coming up in a bit to help me today. He offered. Nice to have good friends.

Just came back in, must've been ~ 8:45 before I got suited up & on the blower. So a little < than a hour & 1/2 to clean it up good as we didn't touch it after the last little bit we got. It felt like the wind was just beginnin to pick up a little too, so  it's done.

so I heard from my brudder, his kid decided to head to the cabin for the weekend as he always does super bowl weekend. sounds like the plow guy plowed down into the neighbors and left a big bank going down into our place.

he also said the pilot light on the furnace was out and now wont stay lit. wonder iffin that's got something to do with the LP regulator stuff freezing up>???????????

[Gunner55]

Pretty sure that's what caused our problems. The owner over at HH that day said he was going out every 2 hours & pouring warm water on his regulator, that got his to light but wouldn't stay running. Probably because it was still getting colder as it hasn't hit the low for the day yet. Lately here it isn't until an hour or so after sunrise (8-8:30) that it hits the low for the day. Once we took it off auto so it wouldn't need so much LP flow to start & stay runnin ours was OK. We didn't put it back in normal(auto) mode 'till much later in the day, late am-early pm, & it's been fine since. Brother did a little research & found that LP can start freezing up @ -40.

Just make sure ya take your hair dryer along when ya go next time, you can just plug dat in to thaw out da regulator.   Or ya might be able to get by if'n you just went over & talked to it for a few minutes.

furnace wont get fixed for now. furnace guys vehicles are 2 wheel drives, sooo........ his kid said 6 inches of snow and still snowing.

[Gunner55]

We had closer to 4" when I checked before breakfast, about 6:30, but we went out afterwards & could've gotten another inch while we were out there. Still flakin a little yet now.

[Rebel SS]

Blowin' like a hound dog here, and started to spew some flakes....temp dropped from 28* to 14* real quick. The streets look shiny..... O great...gotta leave in a bit.

[Gunner55]

Not much wind here, other than you know who , hourly said<10 mph all day. Still spittin a little though
