I think they're calling this storm the BIGLIZARD.
As big storms go, it could have been a lot worse. We didn't lose power or internet, and we stayed safely home -- even if the governor hadn't declared a travel ban at 4PM yesterday, we had no plans to go out.
However, we got a LOT of snow. How much?
It was up to the bumper of![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
eternaleponine 's Subaru wagon.
She had to use her full body weight to open the door.
The PLOWED half of the street was still covered to more than the depth of a corgi.
And Storm Team Delta tried to get a measurement, but their ruler wasn't big enough.
eternaleponine and I have put in two one-hour bouts of shoveling, and we're nowhere NEAR done. The front walk and sidewalk are clear, but her car couldn't clear the driveway. Even if it could, she couldn't go anywhere, because the STREET isn't plowed.
We're about to give it another go. Wish us luck.
