We're supposed to end up with 14" to 18" here. I got this soft cab for my Cub Cadet 125 so I'm looking forward to seeing how well it works.

If it works well, I'll be "retiring" the motorcycle helmet from snow duty :lol:

2 feet plus on the ground now and still snowing. Just had breakfast heading out to crank the snow blower and then the tractor so I can plow a placefor the dogs to poop and then feed the mommas here. My partner has my 6400 John Deere with the big v-blade rolling already and will be enroute here so we can plow the road 3 miles to the river farm with me behind him in the feed truck so we can plow out a place and take 2 rolls of hay to he Mommas there. Gonna be a long day. I won't be making it in to work tonight.

That's emergency conditions, Tim! I hope you can do what you need to, and stay safe while doing it.

We have about 4 or 5 inches of snow and ice pellets, but luckily little or no freezing rain so far. The prediction for today is:

"Mainly cloudy, windy and cold, with a chance of flurries, freezing drizzle or snow showers."

We'll see.

I went out to the shed to start the torpedo heater to warm up the Cub Cadet and took this video

Yes, it is as nice as it sounds outside :lol:


I just bought a soft cab for the Cub Cadet and took a video of clearing snow with the Cub Cadet 125 using the QA 42 single stage snow thrower

Glad you can take care of the "mommas". We had some unusual heavy snow last month, and NM lost a lot of cattle.
