I've recently entered my early 30s and I gotta tell ya, the grunts are entirely necessary. Can't do anything without em. Know how pain hurts less when you cuss? Well it's easier to stand up when you grunt.
Buy a shovel. If you dont already have one. The plastic ones are good for deep snow, but the metal ones really clean up the snow better so your sidewalk doesn't turn into mt Everest in January.
Love the 1991 Halloween blizzard reference. I can appreciate it because i live in Minnesota and weve referenced that blizzard before with my parents before.
For us in Maine it was the blizzard of '08. 7 Days our house was out of power and we didn't have a generator. Luckily I worked at an office with a shower so I could go in early and still do that, but when I got home it was bundle up and read a book by the candle light. #FirstWorldProblems
@@saiga12forme88 Well a shower is real easy. Snow is basically water. Just strip down in underwear and go for it lol. Cant be nearly as bad as the "polar plunge".
I was in Minnesota for the 91 storm at job corp training. Made alot of $ shoveling and we had a great time in the dorms drinking and playing cards. Cafeteria ran out of food so we hit every place we could for beer and food!
28, from Minnesota. It's not an act. He's just documenting true midwestern scenarios. Others would think it's exxagerated..... But it's literally dead on, it's too good.
Having grown up in the Midwest my whole life i've figured out how much snow you will actually get. Just take what the weather people say and knock 80% off and that's your real total lol Edit: I forgot the other scale too. If they say 1-2 inches, it's either nothing or a foot of snow. There is no in between
Halloween Day, 1991. I was in 4th grade. I remember it well. During the 10am 15 minute recess, it started snowing. Lunch recess, there was maybe an inch or two on the ground but HUGE snowflakes. Then by the time we got out of school??? At least 8-10" on the ground and still snowing. It snowed until the next day around lunch. In New Richmond, WI, we had like 42" total snow at that point. Probably one of the best winter memories of my childhood. Thanks for the reminder!!!
Ah yes - happy memory cuz you were a kiddie on a snow day! Excellent. Thanks for the story! Hope you made the most of it with snowmen, snowforts and sledding. 😁🤗
Happened too many times lol. One time, they had the forecast nailed. Only problem was from Shawano to Southern Marinette County, there was a 20-mile wide swath where only 5-8 inches fell, and the others has 12+ inches in spots. I was so bummed.
Both the part about spending time when they were younger and the part about the weatherman always being wrong really hit home, you guys are killing it!
It's so interesting how we all prepare for our own regional weather emergencies. As someone from the deep south, I found this humorous and fascinating!
I drove down south one year while you guys got dusted with snow. Got pulled over and cop asked why i was driving in such "horrible" conditions. Laughed and showed him my NY id.
My dad is 75 and still acts like this. Every snow flake is possible storm of the century. Expanding how I need to be prepared. And he gets up set at me and the other neighbors if clean our own driveways. Because he likes using his big tractor
Holiday indeed has everything you need during a snowpocolypse. As a former GM of a Holiday station, please thank the employees for working during terrible conditions. They truly deserve it.
In Alabama, that would be considered a Great Blizzard! We always reference the "Blizzard of '93" down here...15" of snow and we were outta school for like 2 weeks! That's a normal day for you Northerners!
Watching this in Houston with no power after a severe ice storm.... I was scraping 2 inch ice off the walk way. I love the winter but after this, naw, I want my summer back!
Live in Northern Michigan. Just got about 9 out here the other day here is the process..... Step 1-move cars in the lawn for a clean run at the drive way. Step 2- raise all windshield wiper blades. (Even the ones on the car in the garage for good measure) Step 3- spray the shit out of the blower with wd-40 so that snow won’t clog up on ya. Step 4- slam three beers Step 5- clean up all the dog shit in the yard so you don’t throw all over. Step 6- slam 4 more beers Step 7- make sure you have the weights and chains on the tractor because you know your gonna get stuck( every GD time!) Step 8- 2 shots of whiskey Step 9- nap Step 10- get back on track with two more beers Step 11- try to get thirsty with your wife end get denied Step-12 Morning is here...... no f***n gas in the tractor Step 13- crack a beer and call your buddy with a plow.
@@furd1905 : was making fun of the folks clicking the dislike button. 🤗 yup, I'm in the north also. And even though "prepared", still dreading the coming snow. That probably makes me zombie fodder by itself! 😁 The snow (and zombies) can smell the fear. 😁😱😭
They'll be the first to go during the Democrat apocalypse that will be happening soon if Joe Biden or another Dem gets into office. 😆 Democrat supporters actually think the Democrats care about them but they forget all about them after they get their vote.

This guy nailed it! Haha. Love it. Lived through 3 mega storms - 2 of them ice which took out power for days....funny thing they weren't predicted to be bad. Lol
@@hiTCAM00 The weather people don't know squirt. Here in Roanoke Virginia they were predicting a cold and snowy winter with below average temps and as far it's been above average temps and rain rain and more rain.
Omg this was my late husband to a tee! only difference is he would send us out the grocery store then somehow his back was going out( this was pre snowblower days) and volunteer us to "help" him then he would whine how much he was in pain Once we got that snow blower though he was Superman!
I'm almost ashamed to admit that when I saw that red double shovel (never seen one of those before), I actually said, "Oh!" out loud - as in "Oh yeah, I could use one of those." I don't think you're supposed to get excited over a shovel.
As someone who used to do commercial snow removal in the winter, this all feels very accurate. Especially the disappointment when it was supposed to snow six inches and we got some dust.
Weatherman got it wrong again - literally defines Ohio in these situations. At this point they might as well just leave every forecast as “its going to be a dry or wet day somewhere between 0 and 110 degrees.”
I run a property management company and we have 4 plow trucks in the winter. This literally happened to us today in Spokane WA. I was 28 years old when we started doing this and have been THIS WAY ever since then.
This couldn’t be more accurate...haha this is all I’ve known my whole life. When they say you’ll have a ton of lake effect snow and you wake up with a dusting is all. Good times, good times
Carhart toque over ballcap + carhart sweater + WIN. I was expecting a Stihl 4500 dual turbo diesel backpack 700mph leaf blower to come out to proper deal with that snow dust. But gotta admit, your aluminum grain scoop technique is top shelf. Insulated Bib overalls are THE way to go, good call. Stay gold.
