Nor'Easter In Full Force On Valentines Day

Cleveland and it's suburbs got blanketed with 24" up to 36+". What a winter wonderland. Removal was a different thing. It was cold (3 and below and windy), guaranteed to go right through whatever you were wearing. Neighbor helped neighbor with shovels and snow blowers if you had the wide mouth type. Walking was fun if your were under 6' tall. I'm 5' 10" and it was passed my knees. You sort of walked like a "cat trying to get through a wet area". Sort of side stepping your tracks. It took about 3 days to finally get most of the metropolitan area moving on the side steets. The snow plow crews kept working around the clock plowing the main streets and interstates to keep as much of the traffic going as possible. Some cars still are not plowed out as they were parked on the street at the time the snow was coming down at 1-2" an hour and the snow plows covered the cars up that weren't moved off the street in time. I've seen enough of that kind of snow for the winter for a while. Love the country and city up here. Wouldn't move if at all possible.
