Today's snowfall makes it 15 of the past 17 days with snowfall.
It's now snowed here 15 of the last 18 days... I'm not hopeful we'll be reporting about ice in Minnesota...
frankly it looks like we have to much to plow on Minnetonka, track too narrow, snowbank too high, causing big cracks in narrow track...
