    Letting up a bit in Bethel but still snowing. I'd say solid 6 on the ground at this point. Roads are terrible and traffic is very low.

    I just shoveled even though it's still coming down. I can't stop sweating.

    I call this a bust for Madison NJ. Maybe 5-6 inches tops. Sun is out. Snow is melting. Ariens was a monster. It has more bells and whistles than I imagined.

    Think of a giraffe as an exotic biracial supermodel goat.

    About 8" so far, still coming down hard. And windy as fuck. And it was 45 degrees yesterday. Deplorable.

    Welcome back, jaywayne. I stopped looking in this thread since you left because I don't care about weather in the tri state, still, it's good to see you posting.

    My neighbor has one of the Craftsman ones and he was amazed with what this one did. It took care of the melted heavy stuff like nobody's business. And it comes with a small shovel to clean the snow from the chute @FJF :)

    There are a few other snowblowers that can hang with the Ariens. Craftsman isn't one of them and I think the others cost more cash. That Ariens should be your last snowblower with proper care. All parts including the engine (Briggs & Stratton) are American made. Just remember that at the end of the season, drain the gas and then run Stabil thru it until the engine cuts off. NEVER leave gas in your snowblower over the summer. If you do, it will gum up and your blower will be useless the following winter.

    Side streets this morning were terrible. You could play a hockey game on my street so leaving for work this morning was fun. Highways in Jersey RT 208, RT 4 and 17 were fine though.
