New England Snow Storm 3-8-18

What did you get ?

I got the Heaviest, Wettest snow I have ever had in YEARS ! Rained all day before snow started at 8pm so it stuck to everything.
About 8-10 inches. Almost took out my Run netting, and bent over some of the Bamboo fence by the Carport. No tree damage but I don't have any trees IN my yard anyway.
Many without power around here.

FYI, it is JUST Netting from the far Left to where that 'gate' fence is.

With only a little snow

Ok I am watching my neighbor get out his snow blower.. And it won't start, he's fiddling with it

WHY ?? You already shoveled out the end of the driveway. That is the worst part. All you got left is the short walk way.

typical NON- New Englander

I feel bad for you. It got into the middle 20's here with no precipitation, and after a week or two of 60-70 degree temps, I am feeling kinda let down. I do it every year. I know winter is not over, but I jump the gun anyway. Your photos make me feel guilty for my self pity.

In NY we got 8 inches, we made a snow chicken but its head fell off, but i was in MA during the seven foot snow!

@Rocky Rhodes Don't feel bad, I live here on Purpose it is just something you get used to. I had plans to redo the run area anyway.
It DOES make me wish Spring comes faster now.
... but more snow on Monday

@Izzychicky I wondered what you all got. Sister is in Staten Island and had 8 inches last night at 7pm. Have not talked to her yet to find out what she got

Yes, up in upstate New York we got a ton of heavy wet snow. It is such a pain, and we just had a snow storm last week. WHY?????!!!
And even worse, the chickens refuse to go outside, even with a huge path shoveled for them. Uhg. They just stay in the coop, and get it all dirty after I just cleaned it! I'm trying to entice them with scratch to come outside.

I tossed out some hay on top of the snow. Well I shoveled a little near their entrance so it was flat-er, then threw hay.
They came out to scratch for a bit.
in and out they have been so far
