Fairbanks snowmageddon
This is what we've had since just before Christmas. We got 12" in one day. In the first pic you can just see the tip of a 12" ruler sticking out of the snow. For a while all I did was plow snow off my pad, once in the middle of the night between 1 and 3am, then again in the afternoon. Once it quit falling it was shoveling/scooping/plowing snow all day just to get the pad clear. The roads didn't get plowed out for a long time. Oh, and on the 26th it poured rain all day at 23-25deg and iced EVERYTHING over; all the roads are still based with 2" of glare ice. And we've not had any mail delivery in 12days now. I am keeping one adult male ruffie regularly and well fed in my lower yard. Pics were taken on the 29th. The fourth pic was taken yesterday. The last pic is just now and of keeping the "family" fed. All they want this time of year is Pnut butter. They haven't touched a sunflower seed in over a month.
