We are inland, so we didn't get floods, although coastal areas did.

I can attest to having A LOT of snow. I was afraid we would not be
capable of shoveling what needed to be cleared, but somehow we did. I
was glad to see that I could shovel for 5+ hours straight and not have a
heart attack. I did vary my approaches whenever I got tired, and that
seemed to work.

Tomorrow, I will hack away at some of the peaks, widen some paths, etc.
because more snow is coming on Friday and again... I don't even want to
think about it.

I will say that at first I was alternating between a walkway and making
a path to my front birdfeeders. (Someone else made the path to the back
ones.) I could see that one of the front feeders was low and knew that
one of the back feeders must be on the verge of emptiness.
