Anyone getting snow ?

We got about 8". What sucks for me is that directly to the south of my house is a small mountain so this time of year we get minimal direct sunlight on the house and driveway. There's still 2-3" of sleet underneath this snow. Gonna take a serious warm spell for it to clear off. My small plow had nothing for all that sleet. The overall driveway is almost half a mile long. I'm parking the Land Cruiser down by the pond to avoid having to drive uo the last 75 yards or so to the house which is the steepest part. That's probably gonna be the status quo for the foreseeable future. I need a stretch of days in the 50s with night time temps that aren't getting below freezing.

In NYC the snow from last week is still piled up on the curbs 2-3 feet high, It's not getting above freezing until mid Feb and what does melt will freeze at night lol. When all that accumulation finally melts for real it's another nightmare altogether with flooding and people's roofs leaking.

I'm in the same boat except for the sleet.  I could fire up the tractor and hook up the box blade to clear the driveway, except I know the state road isn't plowed or salted either, so it makes no sense to really do anything at this point except wait for warmer weather which it looks like  wont happen till Tuesday at the earliest.  Probably be mid week or later before I'm able to go anywhere.
