OT: Saturday 11:30 AM - 26 inches

[Alice Faber]

The town where Larry H and I live has the third highest accumulation in
the state, 36" on average and before drifting. I just spent 45 minutes
shoveling my front stoop, as the drift was much higher. Balancing out
the drifts, I do have bare grass on one side of my house.
