Snowing like crazy. Got the case 446 ready to go as soon as it lets up or quits. Suppose to change to sleet and rain later today, but don't look good right now

Got the TO20 full of gas and ready. Nothing here yet and it is supposed to go from snow to mix to rain. Will see what happens.

Freezing rain here. About one inch ice on ground. Really pretty! Looks dangerous to be out. Do have chains on little JD. Wife wants to go to a competion cheer 100 miles away! Grandparents! Located SE I'll.

Have ice all over right now from freezing rain last night. Suppose to get up to 40 today with rain so most of the snow and ice should melt off but will make for a mess

We have about 6" here in central Ohio most came in this morning..I just plowed my place out with a 4430 and rear blade.

Been snowing here in Virginia since daybreak. About 5 inches so far, I cleared off the deck and now it looks like it was never touched. I will wait to plow later, I use a back blade on my IH 424

Started snowing here in Colorado early this morning. Got about an inch on the ground so far. Warm enough yet it is melting but still snowing lightly.

Nice and sunny with wind chill factors in the -30s. We still have all the snow we got since November. I did not think we had a lot until I had to open a half mile of prairie trail to empty some grain bins yesterday. I used to think my 2090 Case with 8 foot blade was a big tractor too but soon found it wasn't big enough. It got the job done but a couple of hours of hard pushing was involved.

Hard to tell how much we got today, already had some. Don't think I have seen bare ground this year 2015.

Always amazed at the traction this little 4WD compact gets with turf tires, I still think they out perform ag tires on snow and ice.

Wife still really likes that battery powered snow blower. Can not wait till she wakes up from her nap so I can tell her the walk needs cleaned again. LOL

Here in North central Maine we are at 104 inches of snow last I heard with more due tonight.
The little JD-350 Dozer does a fine job at keeping it all under control.

That's about as pretty a picture as you could get, even if it is of the snow. Keith

Heyseed · Feb 21, 2015

thanks Keith.

Hayseed what part of VA are you from? If you don't mind me asking.

Dan in Ohio · Feb 21, 2015

Joke's on me, she said OK you have go for a walk with me though.

56oliver · Feb 21, 2015

Well we ended up getting a little over a foot... Weather man screwed up on this one!

jm. · Feb 21, 2015

Did the dealer sit that tractor up with those loader hoses hanging down that low or have you modified them. Sure looks like they would be easy to hang.

David G · Feb 21, 2015

Where you at in VA?

JD Seller · Feb 21, 2015

JM He just need to pull them forward of up. There is another bracket that you are supposed to hook the hoses up to hold the slack out of the way.

Snowing, we need more!

This was yesterday. The only change made this year was to switch to a 5w-40 diesel spec oil. I get a little more valve noise when cold, but that quickly goes away when warm. Oil pressure is right at 35 psi, which is where the relief opens. Last year, I pitched the 160 thermostat in favor of a 195 degree. Looking back, I should have stayed with a 180 as that is the hottest it will maintain. The other additions were high compression pistons, electronic ignition, cast and fluid weight in the mains, and duo bar tire chains. Starts easy, good consistent power, and very easy on fuel. Oh, the blade is a vintage Bush-Hog 7 footer, refurbed and painted black. The blade had to be leaned way forward to prevent digging in. It is a beast.
