Ah...Lake-effect snow...up to 12 feet deep in some parts north of here...
You don't shovel it. You can't shovel it. You have a big honkin' snowthrower and you run it twice a day. If you don't, you get buried and have to hire a backhoe to dig out. I am not kidding. God help you if you need an ambulance or a fireman...they can't get to you. Stock food, water and fuel. The water mains break and the roofs collapse. Major PITA.
