Even 6" will be bad if the wind picks up like they are suggesting. A lot of the roads still have high drifts along the sides & this will plug many of them up pretty tight.

we're getting it now, most of western SD is shut down by the governor. least the state offices are. I made it 2 miles out of town before I had to turn back. so it looks like I get to enjoy a snow day. temps are hovering at freezing so everything is heavy and wet, when they drop it's going to be an ice nightmare here. kinda feels like atlas again.

Bout time you got some crappy weather... ND/WB, I read 14" for you today with 50mph winds. That's not good. Not even a little bit.

LOL, we're trying to get all our stuff finished so we can sell the house, this will delay us a bit on the outside stuff, least I can finish a couple inside things. it's crazy how having a baby can shrink your house. I also need to finish my address book for the invites on my side. blessing in disguise I guess

I was in SD Saturday, for about 25 minutes. Plane stopped in Rapid city to take on fuel. Didn't see a whole lot of snow cover left.

Went to a gun show this weekend and thought I hit the motherlode - but it turns out it was a gun-knife, not a knife-gun.

There's only one way to get a Kinfe-gun. Joey has to give it to you. The good news is.... he's pretty liberal with them. I got 4 or 5 of em one night at deer camp. Turns out that particular season, we were covered in Flying Bear, and Joey wanted us to be ready.

I remember that, I always checked my knife gun in with Joey when I got back to camp, he was sure serious on how to use them against the flying bear. no joke, that stuff is serious. saved my bacon when I needed it.

spent the past hour rolling around in 16" of new snow, digging under a buick with a winch cable hook and dragging said buick around on it's belly with Nates 77 Ford.
wow, miserable.
(and that was just at home in the driveway)

I don't know if I'll take it to work, but I'll be cleaning snow with it here at home in the morning.
If I don't, nobody will get out of our driveway in the morning... well, nobody except Nate.
lol

16" already? I thought it wasnt coming until later in the day and tonight? Just sprinkles here so far. You can keep that stuff though.
What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.
