Excellent point. My experience with snow is limited.

Any thoughts on 5854.jpg? Looks like the person digging it out has an
antenna sticking out of their back pocket. With the large amount
pushed up from the store lot on the right, and the equally large
amount from the road on the right, I wonder if he (or she considering
the heels) isn't an employee driving removal equipment.

Whatever the case they'll be there awhile.
