Well what do you boys think, is it really over in the northeast???
Accuweather hints at maybe some colder more wintry weather from next Monday onward but its tough to tell.
I took advantage of the warm weather this past weekend and went out with my Stihl Power Broom and cleared some of the sand out of my front lawn. I had a large wheelbarrow load full of sand when I was done.

I dont know, most of the weather guessers say its not.Accuweather has showed snow a few times but when it gets near that date it changes to rain or nothing.Next week looks like we may get something.Im keeping my plow close by but getting the mowers ready to go.

Its still winter, but I think its time to apply the pre emergent
I think as far as plowing, it's over. We might get some more but with the temp up like it is, nobody is going to want it plowed, they'll just let it melt.
I've gotten the nail gun out. Started a couple of projects. Got the chain saw fired up and ready to start cutting wood for next winter. Just waiting for the snow to melt off and mud to settle so I can get out in the woods.
But I'm keeping the plows and sander at the ready, too.
I've got about 1200# of Magic Salt left if anybody wants some.
I think we are still going to get some winter weather, this nice weather cant last for too long. Not calling it over yet, plus we still have 100tons of salt to get rid of so maybe if it does snow we will just burn it off. We'll just wait and see. Just my two cents

If there is a lets say a 6 " snow storm . Your customers wont want it plowed if its going to be 50 + degrees the next day ? I would go out after the trigger no matter what .
I will be plowing if we get a storm and is 1" our trigger. We will plow it doesnt matter how warm it is going be our customers will want the snow gone, doesnt look like we will get any stacking or snow removal this year but oh well there is always next year.Just my two cents
