Wonder if this has the potential to turn into the November storm everyone remembers. Going to really depend on that wind and if it holds in one place or not. ---

Tonight I’m clearing out my garage so we can get the cars back in and pulling the snow blower out of the back shed storage. ---

I can clear 5 or 6 driveways on my road with pretty good ease. I wish I had a front mount because my neck takes a beating running the rear mount blower, but it definitely gets the job done. It’s so much easier to plow when we get a few inches, but storms like what they’re calling for this weekend are why I keep my tractor handy! ---

It’s a 1 series sub compact, same model just posted for sale in Sanborn today: > **[2015 John Deere 1025R Tractor Loader Mower - farm & garden - by...](https://buffalo.craigslist.org/grd/d/sanborn-2015-john-deere-1025r-tractor/7553642739.html)** > > 2015 John Deere 1025R Tractor Three Cylinder Diesel 380 Hours Front End Loader 60” Autoconnect Mid Mount Mower Hydrostatic Transmission High and Low Gear 4x4 or 2x4 Differential Lock Three Point... I can’t speak for any other brands as this is my 1st tractor purchase, but I know the R on the 1025 model gives you 4wd, armrests and some other convenient upgrades. Differences found here: [John Deere 1023E vs. 1025R: What Are the Differences?](https://www.centurypwrequipment.com/research-1023e-vs-1025r) As for X series vs subcompact, it’s a no-brainer if you ask me. Just having the bucket alone has saved me thousands in work I would have had to pay out around the house. I’d like to add a cab & front mount blower, but I’d be better off to just sell mine order it new that way. ---

I did the same thing in West Seneca. But a couple years ago I moved my sled to the Adirondacks since it’s not worth keeping it here to ride the 2 days the trails are open. Storms like this make me wish it was here. I could rip the roads everywhere, nobody’s going to bother ya. ---

I’m just waiting for the…. Oh the weather got warmer, and we all get a couple inches. For Northern Erie: Weather channel says 2-6 inches AccuWeather says 2-3 feet Channel 4 says 8-12 Channel 2 says ehh 1-2 feet somewhere. ---

The heaviest snow is expected late Thursday night > through Friday night when snowfall rates could exceed two > inches per hour.

Winds gusting as high as 35 mph. > > - WHERE…Northern Erie and Genesee counties. > > - WHEN…From 7 PM Thursday to 1 PM EST Sunday. Manager meeting at work and pretty sure we’re shutting the office down Thursday night and going to our “covid operations” where everyone works from home on Friday, unless there is a major change in the forecast during the day Thursday. Sitting here on the southern part of 14228 we’re on the edge of the worst of it Thursday night/Friday with a lot of our people living in the middle of the band. The general consensus was there was no point getting people here and risking them not being able to get home when we have procedures in place that we perfected over covid to have people work remotely.
