the photo my sis sent was from an angle above (her house toward the
garage, and the snow was up to the eaves of the garage and in spots
above the eaves and onto the roof of the garage. I am not sure how tall
her garage is, nor if some of that snow had blown there as a drift, but
it wasn't snow that slid off the garage roof, as that was still there.
She said she was spending several hours a day with an electric snow
shovel thing and could not keep up.
nasty...I used to think eastern Wa****ngton could be pretty bad. On rare
occasions we'd get 2 feet of snow and that could pile up from the road
scraping to higher than 4 feet..one did not dare to not keep the
driveway opened for once it froze all together the drive could not be
used until the thaw. We all put flags on the antennae and once it was
like slot-cars downtown. But that was very very rare.
You gots my sympathy VG...digging out 2-3x a day isn't fun at all.
hope it stops and wears down a bit. Hey, do the bears and moose get on
the roofs when it gets that high? heh.
