You should push the Shake Loose button so it can shake like a dog and get loose from all the snow. I lived in Pittsburgh for 17 years and can't remember being buried like that.

Ouch! I grew up in Minnesota and lived for years in Michigan and I don't ever remember being buried like that either! I do not miss digging out.

We had about the same amount of snow. I put my car in the parents garage when I visited last weekend. No snow on it, lol!

That is what my car looked like by the end of the storm.

This is what it looked like before the storm really started coming down.
