Default It's snowing!!!

Thought I would start a thread as not seen one about snow yet, so we have the first proper snow of the year falling here in Leeds, what's everyone else got?

It snowed everywhere at the start of the year.

Is that some kind of vaccum but for snow where it sucks it up and chucks it out to the side?

Do you find it much helpful or just a little gimmick?

Its a snow blower and as you say scoops the snow and throws in the direction you have the chute pointing in.

Far less backbreaking than a shovel that's for sure and pretty much essential for the amount of snow we have over here .

3" within the time it took to watch the Cotto v Margacheato fight tonight. Pleasant surprise and the sled dog's first experience of snow.

4° and sunny here with temp rising during the week. The longer the white stuff stays away the better.

Managed to capture this yesterday. First time our Alaskan Malamute has encountered snow. Both pups catching snow flakes in their mouths.
