The 2006 Edition! This poll crops up every year, I thought I'd dust it off, correct some grammar and punctuation, and let everyone at it!

I don't know how it is everywhere else, but Albuquerque is getting dumped on.
The business next to where I work is an open yard - Adobe Building Supply. They've got stacks of logs waiting to be turned into vegas, panelling, carved poles, etc. There's at LEAST 3 inches sitting on the stuff right now, and the snow shows no sign of stopping.

At my house we've got about 7 inches. It's awesome. Except all the roads are icy and snowpacked. Or at least a bunch of the roads are...

LOL! It sounds like both you guys have had it rough this year with the snow. We're getting some right now, but I think we'll be lucky if it piles up to two inches at most. It's cold though, so at least it's sticking somewhat.

Love it. I'd say more, but after 2 blizzards and another 6" plus this morning (and still coming down), and another storm due next week, I'd be fine if we got it in 4" batches. 24-36" plus drifts is a bit much.
The pile along the side of my driveway is still roughly 4 feet tall, and the end is 5 foot plus. Same with the "wedges" that we had to pile up just so we could get through the street to where the plows and traffic hace produced a 1.5 car wide swath in the street. The ends of the wedge are almost 6 feet tall on one side and are a real pain in the *** to throw snow over. But you have to clear that, or it's impossible to get through the hardpack that the plows throw into your cut swath from your driveway to the street.
I really wish I had the money to buy a snowblower. Then I'd charge $20 a driveway and pay it off in one storm. I'd charge another $20 to do the parking in front of houses. I could make a LOT of money, that's for sure....
