That video is from March 13, 2022 - that’s almost exactly a year ago. Currently, in 2023, we have more snow than we did at this time in 2022 and it’s not going anywhere. At least not for a few more weeks.
If you remember, winter started off with a bang in early November giving us 36” in 36 hours. From there, it’s continued to build, melting occasionally and compacting in the sun only to refreeze, layer upon layer. Right now, we have about 3 feet of hardpacked snow all around us.
In some places, it’s not so hardpacked anymore, as you can see from the video. When it starts melting, life gets interesting.
John uses the snow-blower to keep wide swaths clear around the house so we can get to the chicken coop, the barn, and the solar panels relatively easily.
