[QUOTE="rarefish383, post: 7654838, member: 42490"] In Western MD we only got a couple inches, and by the time I went to bed it was freezing rain. When I got up I ran my JD X540 with a 47" snow blower down the drive. Water was literally running down the drive under the snow. But, the air temp was 29. I turned around and started back up and made it about half way, in less than 5 minutes the water had turned to Ice. I'm running 200 pounds of ballast plus my 230, and that's not enough. The guys with tractors like mine say I need 6-800 pounds of ballast. Figure I'll load the tires, that's about another 80 pounds each. All the roads are down to black asphalt, shady areas may be black Ice. My Burnese Mountain Dog had an appointment for a hair do. They called at 8:02 to say they were open and ready. Nothing catastrophic here. [/QUOTE]
