16 feet of snow, yikes!
Sounds like here in Denver - the mountains have gotten a decent amount of snow (not like Tahoe though), but down here we've had practically 0 precipitation for months.I'm in Placerville.... Next to no snow here, but 5 miles east they are dumped on!
In pieces. It can be done. Most up there own blowers or have plow service.16 feet is some serious flakes. How do you even deal with that? No homeowner has tools that can cope with it. Just wait until spring?
I have a snow blower too.In pieces. It can be done. Most up there own blowers or have plow service.
You wouldn't let it get that high before you knocked it down with the blower. You'd be out a few times to manage it.I have a snow blower too.
It would be 100% useless against 16' of snow.
Yea. I had to do that a few times when I lived in Park City UT but we never had a storm like this one.You wouldn't let it get that high before you knocked it down with the blower. You'd be out a few times to manage it.
A few like 8 times, assuming your blower could handle 2 feet of snow, which I think is optimistic in my case. But I've dealt with more than 2 feet total, by rocking it back and taking off the top layer, then dropping it back down for another layer below.You wouldn't let it get that high before you knocked it down with the blower.

Except for the areas that have had forest fires. Mudslides and flooding will be concerns unless they get a very gradual spring thaw. :-(Good news is this ought to help the low water levels downstream from the
Sierras all the way to Baja.

And you're right, you do what they're is part way through the storm, do it doesn't get too high to deal with.
Still, 16 feet of snow is a serious project, any way you slice it.

I'm in Boulder and we've had barely a snowflake yet this season! In a normal season I've had to shovel the driveway at least once by now.Sounds like here in Denver - the mountains have gotten a decent amount of snow (not like Tahoe though), but down here we've had practically 0 precipitation for months.
