Default Re: Blizzard in the Northeast

Posting from one of the only neighborhoods in Smithfield that still has power. Underground utilities are goddamn amazing.

Snow is 2ft at its lowest, up to 3ft in places. Natural drifts up to 4ft, and the "plug" at the end of the driveway caused by the snowplow is legit taller than I am (I'm 6'6 tall for reference)

Was pretty windy last night. Farther north like up in Massachusetts got it worse but it was still howling through the trees and knocking branches down and stuff. Not as bad as Hurricane Sandy though.
Took 2 hours to shovel our driveway even with a super turbo snowblower.

On the plus side, the woods behind our house are pretty as fuck right now. Trees covered in snow lookin' all scenic and stuff, its like National Geographic shit back there.
I'm gonna go put on my boots and take me a walk in the snowy forest pce
