If your home can survive that structurally, it will actually be cozier, (easier to heat) than without the snow.
Global warming at work, no doubt.
That's the spirit!
In Russia, snow plows YOU. Cool pictures!
My preference is not to have the snow at all. I must admit though at the 78 degrees we have here today it does not feel much like winter.
Now if you happen to like snow, this would be a bit much.
Hmmm, anyone know of any ski resorts in that area? Talk about a blower! Colorado could use some of that!
I take my leaf bags and tuck them around the foundation, then when it snows I pile it on top of them. Hey, every little bit helps, and it’s free.
Indeed...the ‘cold wave’ settling into Red Hampshire this week is going to be ‘mellower’ than originally anticipated.
When I see pictures of a hood I wonder, where does the guy think he’s going to go when he shovels out the whole car? What’s the point.

When I lived in the high mountains I used to take the snow plowed from the driveway and pile it against the north side of the house. It worked well for keeping the inside comfy.

In fact their services are pretty good at dealing with things like that.
Streets are usually driveble within hours after a snowfall like that.

Norilsk is the northernmost city in the world and is a mining town. It has been a closed city to foreigners for a decade.
Lying north of the Arctic Circle, there is no daylight for six weeks from mid-December to mid-January. In mid summer, it sees continuous daylight AKA the “midnight sun.”
Its a very harsh place to live, if you like constant snow and below freezing sub-zero temperatures.
Unreal.

What’s it like if you don’t like them?
Thanks for the pic of a warmly lit snow tunnel doorway. It brings back fond ‘70s memories of the Myra Creek mine in the mountains of Vancouver Island. Snow accumulation at the camp was over 15’ - plywood tunnels were built between cookshack and bunkhouses.
Good eats - that’s why the memories are fond!
It’s 18 in kabul. Always thinking about the guys on patrols.
