The National Safety Council offers the following tips to help you get a handle on safe shoveling:

Since our garage is on an alley, no need for a snow blower.
I kinda enjoy the workout, but this wet stuff is a PIA. Especially when the plow kicks up long row of packed snow on the driveway.

I've got a snow shovel with a 'back saver' handle that jogs upward. I can really feel the difference between it and a traditional shovel.

Have a snow blower on the front of the John Deere and it has come in handy again this year. Todays' rain and temps got rid of a LOT of the snow. I have one of those new curved handled snow shovels and they make a big , read easier,,, difference in moving snow on the sidewalks.

Wet snow is useless. I like the fluffy stuff, like real 36DD's on a chickie-poo.

Shhhhh! Don't say that! LaNina is supposed to show her head - that means more hurricanes for the Atlantic.
