Typically for the first snowfall, I just shovel as the snowblower gets clogged with the wet first round if the ground is not frozen. We are at 60 inches of snow for this winter already. Average for the winter has been right around 105 inches going back to those days of the snow globe being ever present. Biggest ones definitely that I remember were the totals in 1977 and 78 winters (first few years of my skiing seasons.) Christmas of 1987, Then 1993 March storm that dumped a bunch in 1 day with blizzard conditions.
