I went up the street to the store about 2...didn't have to, just wanted to get a few goodies.
There was little ground clearance around Putt-putt when I went out on the parking lot, so at the time, there was about 3-5 inches on the ground. My street is covered in snow...and it's an uphill trek to the store. Putt-putt didn't do too bad though...front-wheel drive helps.
The store wasn't too bad...plenty of the standard supplies on hand. The main thing I saw that they were out of--most Coke products.
We have some idiot kids in the neighborhood that have 4-wheelers and motorized scooters...there are 2 fairly big parks in our neighborhood...use those, you little bastards.
I haven't been out since, but the snow is really piling up on my balcony...I'd say we have about 10-12 inches now. 12 degrees at NE Airport, with a 16 MPH wind.
If it's this bad when I wake up tomorrow (and apparently, it's supposed to get worse), then fuck it...I ain't going. However, I will take Putt-putt out for some snow donuts.
Good thing that school's out tomorrow anyway (for Presidents Day), or else I imagine tomorrow would be an even bigger mess than it's already gonna be.
