Today was Part 2 of yesterday's snow storm. Yesterday I measured the snow depth in a couple of places in the driveway where it was level and protected from drifts. The depths ranged from 20 to 25 inches. My son got a path shoveled up the hill to the street, and we had maybe 2 more inches by the time the snow stopped.
The snow plows came through at 3AM. We live at the end of a long dead end and we tend to be the lowest priority for plowing. In the past the snowplows would pile up snow in front of the mailboxes. Someone must have complained because this year the mailboxes are pretty clear. Instead, this time, they piled up the snow around our cars. It's higher than the car and compressed into ice. At this point I've barely made a dent in it.
