Up to 40 yesterday, expected to get to 45 today. I had the chance to get out to the garage and clear a path for the water runoff off the sides of the driveway, so today's expected rain and snow melt would not flood my garage... again. This happened about a month ago when we actually had one day above freezing and a good rain storm. Garage flooded and we had sub zero temps the next day and it is slicker than a skating rink in there.

Welp, it is currently pouring rain, and 4 feet of snow all along the driveway is melting, and the runoff areas I cleared are completely flooded and my garage is getting a fresh couple inches of water.

FUCK whoever built my garage at the end of a downward graded driveway with no water runoff plan. So fucking stupid.

It's pretty rough, isn't it?

Somehow we missed most of the more severe weather that hit all around us this year. It was colder that usual, but not bad compared to the rest of the south.

I was walking around without a coat today. Balmy.

Holy fuckasaurus Rex. Several layers of ice to scrape off the car today. I don't think my tires made contact with pavement the entire trip to work. Took almost as long to get the ice off as it did to commute.

This was my back yard before the last big snowstorm. I took the pic because it was the day after we had the -10 temps and fog, and I wanted a pic of the ice crystals it made on everything. My house is the big one way out there. The footsteps are the local shithead kids cutting through my yard. The monster energy drink cans they drop in the yard are under the snow and I will pick them up in the Spring.

We had twice as much snow dumped on us since that pic.

Got a couple more inches of snow last night, so I assume Toledo has broken the all-time record for most snowfall in a winter, ever.

As I mentioned in another thread, temperatures suddenly went to March average, so we have had a massive melt today. I can actually see about 33% of my grass, now, it is only covered where the drifting happened. Snow pile across the street is down to about 10 feet high. I can actually see the top of my well head. And my garage is getting a fresh shot of melt water, yay.

Oh, and 6 inches of snow has been forecast (forecasted?) for Wednesday. We broke the previous all-time Winter snowfall record and we're just gonna keep going.

The guy across the street owns a front-end loader, and a 15 foot pile of snow (pre melting) in some random guy's front yard is unimpressive? I'm not talking about the walmart parking lot, here.
