One Man’s Snow Shoveling Total: 25 Tons

Tuesday, 11 March 2014 | by Pat's Picks

Chicago Tribune reporter Matthew Wallberg crunched the numbers to figure out just how much snow he’s shoveled from his driveway this winter. The result sounds impressive; 25 tons. Wallberg mapped the area of his driveway, calculated the weight by water content of the snow (after consulting with the National Weather Service) and multiplied the number by the amount of snow this winter in Chicago. He’ll have to adjust his calculations. More snow is in the forecast this week.
