Atmospheric river in full effect. 🦣❄️

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 มี.ค. 2023
- All right guys today we dealt with the atmospheric river coming in. It brought in a lot of wet, heavy snow which created chaos throughout the town. Luckily things went fairly well up until one of our clients had a tenant that wasn’t really happy but you will see that we did the best we could with their place, but they still weren’t happy. It is what it is you’re going to be inconvenienced with this weather and, if you didn’t want to be inconvenienced, don’t live in Mammoth that’s all I have to say about that but other than that things went pretty smoothly. We got all of our equipment up and running moving through the day other than one small issue of gas stations running out of fuel again 395 is closed from Bishop all the way down to Piersonville so there’s some major flooding going on there, we had to get fuel in all of our machines in our fuel cells and just make sure that we were going to make it through the next couple of days because the weather is here🦣
I think most of us viewer’s appreciate how you operate. You provide a clean family sort of content without cussing and being degrading towards others. These types of folks stand out today being surrounded by garbage and negative content. You do a valued service for your community. Keep it up God bless.
🙏🏻
@@plowbrothers365 I just started watching your channel and the only thing that I would ever not like about any part of anything… is that you gave those lousy, ungrateful pieces of shit any attention lol… I can’t even properly verbalize how much they suck.. You guys are friggin rockstars snd have more worth ethic in the smallest part of your friggin pinkys than they could even fathom.. prayers for you your guys over the coming days, we appreciate ya brotha 💯 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I so appreciate your videos!
A tip to help with flooding, I'm in Iowa and have been through a couple historic floods....the sandbags help but water still seeps through that barrier. Put a thick millimeter plastic under the bottom bags in front ( sticking out a couple inches) and then have the plastic come up behind the row of sandbags and fold over the top layer. It can be held down over the top layer with a couple more sandbags or something heavy. The length of the plastic needs to be longer than the garage door by 4+ feet. The extra length needs to come forward towards the driveway to help prevent water from sneaking in through the sides. If the thick mil plastic or tarp is wide enough, it can even be brought over the top of the barrier and back down to the bottom. Two rows of sandbags works the best if you can get enough bags. All of this means you will have to walk over your sandbag wall to get into the garage. Hope this makes sense. Maybe this will be useful to someone else.
The challenges that you’ve faced, and continue to work through are incredible! Got a great crew, your temperament with those customers was both honest, and honorable. Keep after it guys!!
Are we even watching the same content? This guy is a joker, that lady was right, massively unprofessional. He can't even keep the parking lot of his plowing business clear. Too cheap to pay to dump snow, so literally piles it up in front of homes. Runs his heavy equipment out of a residential street driveway. Films while driving, a ticketable crime. Yes, "honorable" indeed lol. Grade A cheapskate douchebag, cruisin around in his giant SUV micromanaging people.
@@spewp wow, relax man. The guy is running a snow business in the most extreme conditions possible. I wonder if you run your own business? Running my lawn/snow business out of my house.
Got cut off answering my business phone! Being a “cheapskate “ helps keep your prices down, to be more competitive in the market. I’m sure you know all this, not telling you anything you don’t lnow
I appreciate you showing the best and worst of what you have to go through. Everyone is frustrated, which is understandable. You handled the situation correctly. Be safe!
Man I can’t believe what you’re going through. One thing I do know is that managing a number of people in very trying times is hard and you are doing it right. Don’t let the naysayers get any consideration from you. I enjoy your calm approach. Thanks for sharing! Cheers from Canada.
Gotta say, your channel is awesome! As for the disgruntled whiners, I’m 70+. I live in a small apartment complex in Wisconsin. The couple of snows we had that were over 10 inches, I went out myself and shoveled our walkway so that we all could get out and walk dogs, get to cars, whatever. The maintenance guys didn’t get to us for about 2 hours. So what! And guess what, I didn’t die. People are lazy.
That's because you, like other decent human beings, see something that needs to be done and you go do it to help others instead of waiting and expecting everyone else to serve you.
Thanks for being a real human being.
I think you handled those upset people exceptionally well. They should move back to the city
Yeah, I bit my tongue. I’ll tell you that much. 🤣
Flatlander morons! Go back to your condos in LA and SF! These are the same shitbags that drive cars into the mountains and drive like morons.
@@plowbrothers365 These people think you can beat Mother Nature, and that will never ever happen. She's like 500 billion and 0.
@@plowbrothers365 Oh, and good thing you have the YT channel, to document this exact type of thing.
@@plowbrothers365 I've gone through the same thing (Colorado)
I had no problems replacing bad customers.
I can understand people being frustrated over the whole situation...I really can. Yet, everyone is doing the best that they can. I see that in your videos and others, who are documenting this once in a life time NIGHTMARE weather situation. Screaming and being nasty isn't the way to go. You've been working your arse off. It's a horrible situation for all. Keep up the good work.
So there are Karen's and Darren's in Mammoth Mountain...who knew???
You guys work hard and i admire that. Had a landscaping business ive retired from in the sonoran desert so your area is like a different planet! Dogs are cool, thanks for the programs, i enjoy
These videos rule! Your work is appreciated by more people then you think. The hundreds of thousands of people that visit mammoth and keep the economy moving appreciate you! Without your hard work those people wouldn’t even have a place to live! Keep up the great work and keep it pushing!
Hello from northern Wyoming, we plow snow here. Thank God nothing like that. My advice would be to let everybody who's calling go to voicemail. Second clean off your windshield so you don't break your wiper motor. Third take time for you and you guys to get naps. Thanks for the video
Love the videos, very honest of you to share the neighbours complaints in the complex, some people you just cannot please.
From what I have seen of yourself and all your guys, they are all honest, hardworking and thoughtful people. When the snow is like that it makes a mess of the roads and everything but then when the temperatures drop back down you get a lot of black ice and very hazardous driving. Stay safe and take care of yourselves.
I love this channel. I did this stuff back in the 1970s in Michigan. Great clean entertainment.
Somebody is first and somebody is last and someone is always going to complain no matter what.
It's usually the people who get the shaft that are the ones who complain.
Amazing
Be Safe out There, You're in our Prayers.
Gosh that is a lot of snow................
First of all, I live in Lake Arrowhead and that is just about all we get is wet, sloppy snow. I can relate. Your doing a GREAT job. As for those whiny ass people, I was burried in my house for 14 days before I was plowed out. I walked out a mile one time to get some food. My WiFi went out and I couldn't even watch your videos for 2 weeks. So like you said, if you think you're not going to be inconvenienced at some point, you have another think coming. When I did get my road plowed out, I couldn't turn my truck around. I had to back out a half mile. 😖 That is what we have this winter in the mountains. 🫡 God Bless!
I have lived up here for 40
Good luck. Hope y'all get a break. Also dealing with people along with this immense amount of snow is difficult especially when you have no place to put this stuff. That lady was totally rude to you and not called for.
She no lady!
Oh come on man, we know you have a wand you can whip out and wave and make all the snow disappear. People get uptight and lash out when frustrated, you handled that nicely. Hang in there and don’t lose your sense of humor.
Just an observation about the inconvenienced tenants: the person who actually had to shovel away the extra snow in front of the door was _much_ more reasonable in tone than the screaming, histrionic, shrill voice yelling at you from off camera. It's amazing how the owner of that annoying scream - who only watched others do all the actual work - feels like they were the one most put out by what happened. You are 100% correct that this is an extreme event in already extreme location, so people have to expect some inconvenience. If everyone chips in and does their part, that effect can be mitigated. However, if all an individual does is complain, then they're just expecting others to carry their dead weight. And at that point, who cares about their opinion.
Give the screamer a shovel. Don’t like it, do it yourself.
I feel for you, I've been plowing snow for 30 yrs in the PNW. And on years like this, it's like people expect you shouldnt sleep or eat, and if you try and explain it to them. They say you shouldn't take on so much. I guess so in other milder years, you can suffer and not make any money. Your doing fine, totally above and beyond. Keep moving forward. Good luck.
When the snow was rolling like a wave it reminded me of the rolled ice cream ppl make right in front of you. Very satisfying job I have to say!!!!
Please don't let those people bother you .. They are doing nothing to help other's like you all are !!! You are up against something that hasn't been this bad for years. Your right the flooding will be horrible ! Praying for you all
Great videos and i really appreciate how well you treat your guys out there working their butts off with not only clearing the snow, but also fixing and taking care of the equipment. If someone doesn’t like the winter there ,then tell them to get off their lazy ass and move the snow themselves or move to place that is dealing with the flood waters. Praying everyone affected buy the unusual winter storms gets through them safely.
For a guy that moves snow for a living, you’d think you would CLEAR YOUR WIPPERS…..!😂
lol
here I was thinking the same... those wipers they gonna go kaputt soon 🤣🤣
Yall are doing a great job keeping up with everything there! Stay warm and hydrated as much as you can.
Thank you for supporting my comment and for the love. Have a wonderful night 🌙
You have done an amazing job. dont let those tenants get under your skin they should be praising you for all the dedication to getting them dug out .
Thanks for the you tube vids, I’ve been working for a long time local contractor in mammoth for 4 years tiling showers, thanks for your crazy hard work and content
You have a heckuva hard working team,you do fantastic work.☺☺☺☺
Find it highly unlikely there was 3 ft of snow up to that doorway, since there's no evidence of that much snow being shoveled away from it. Plow Brothers, keep on , keepin on!
Dude, these folks are just probably not happy people. Oh, well, move on. You handled that well. I have been watching you deal with this mess and you guys are always on your feet coming up with ways to deal with the unpredictability of Mother Nature and the failure of machines being tortured by the elements. I am also impressed with how your boys jump out of bed before dawn! That is impressive for young dudes. Hang in there, bud, summer is coming!!!
You and your crew are heroes!😇🙌🏼
We all enjoy being appreciated. Owners, managers and especially employees!!!
She seems nice lol. There is absolutely no way that guy had 3’ of snow by his door. I seriously doubt that pile was moved at all, they were making it up
I’ve run a bigger loader than those CATs removing snow and you’d see where the door is and you wouldn’t get that close. A skid steer or plow truck probably wouldn’t move that size pile and you’d know you were close to the door regardless. Any snow was from Mother Nature, not a machine. They’re probably trying to get a discount on their rent or something.
I think the guy was trying to be reasonable. He was just making a comment about what he was facing when he opened the door. It sounded like both parties were getting defensive especially his wife. I could understand his point of view but again everyone needs to realize this is what you all are facing. Apparently your guy did not use good judgment and should have gotten out to see how far he pushed the snow. I'm sure everyone's tired and wish the whole thing would be over. Honestly when I come into a situation such as this even though I feel I may be right I still look to see if there's something I could have done to prevent that situation from happening again.
I have watched this video a good dozen times and it's clear as day you and your crew are fine examples of true professionals. Sounds like she watched your videos and you would think she should be proud of you for showing your town to the world, I would like to show her how unprofessional we can react towards her. Love the videos!
You can’t please everyone especially in the situation y’all are in!
❄️BLESS YOU WORKING HARD!!! Wet snow is horrible to move and worse freezes easy at nighttime. Be safe our friend❤️
Crazy snow, nice equipment! Need to remove the snow under your truck wipers, the wipers just hammering the mound is killing my OCD 😂
And it will start to strip the wiper splines ! Just saying.
The amount of hours and energy you and your guys are putting in every day is inspiring. Keep up the great work.
I bought a solar generator this year. I live in between two small towns you can't always get out to get supplies. The generator will keep my fridge and freezer cycling. Wood stove to heat and cook if necessary. I have a camp stove also. I have a mid size Kubota with a bucket. Good luck to you all. Keep up the good work. You did very well with those people, water off a ducks back.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Tahoe roofs collapsing .. flooding streets sloppy mess .. stay safe ❄️
🙏🏻
I ran a business for 20 years we bend over for all our clients however there's always one client no matter what you do for them you can't make them happy. Hang in there
Dang! I lived there for 10yrs and luv'd everything, and the SNOW! But, hats off to you guys and all your hard work! Clearly you surpassed what I experienced. BE SAFE and Enjoy!
I think you guys are doing a great job in a terrible snow situation. That lady who was so upset and angry - I'd like to see her try your job. Some people are so unappreciated. Be safe and keep doing what you can do. Will keep you in my prayers.
Mt Rose Ski Tahoe just hit 555 total season snowfall and currently snowing hard.
Only almost 250 inches to go for the record .
I can't believe the people you're trying to help, blaming people like you who are doing their best to help them! I can understand their frustration BUT this is no excuse for the anger towards you. I commend you for staying calm, most would have lost it! If they live there they have to know these conditions are not normal. 🙏🙏🙏
At this point, Redbull should be sponsoring these guys
They are children, they live on that shit, drug of choice.
Wouldn’t it be nice?
You and your team are very professional!! How dare she! This is all frustrating for you and your team. Continue to do you! Stay safe ❤
Great job! Please be safe. Can't please everyone,but you did your best.
So sorry you had to face such undeserved criticism. Those people will find fault with everything. They are just miserable and want to dish it out to others. You were very professional and kept your cool. You and your workers deserve recognition for jobs, well done.
Thank You. Stay safe. Many Blessings.
Love the content. Keep up the hard work. Everyone who is able should have a shovel in their hand working as a team to work towards the common goal.
An atmospheric river and Hurricane Karen all in one video! As a bartender of 32 years, I would have lit her up like the sun then told him that he missed a spot. Screw them, just push everything else into that corner for the rest of the season and you won't have to hear a word from either of them until spring. Keep up the great work and stay safe! The only thing she got correct is that you SHOULD go make another video...we all love them.
You guys are working so hard how many people would be out in your conditions your all doing an awesome job love watching your videos, can't get enough of your programme's keep doing what your doing don't worry bout their nasty texts, time above it. Go you guys 👍👍👍
That wet snow looks like the snow we get here around Tacoma-Seattle area. Spent 25 years plowing roads and I don't miss it at all. You and your crews be safe.
I really appreciate the videos! ❄️☃️❄️
Very Professional Calmness on Your part , here in Southern Connecticut, where people loose their minds with 6” in their way , had a person tell a driver to F Off when he asked them to move their car to the clean side of the parking lot so he could clean the guys spot . SSSOOOO,, the driver piled snow all around the car for the owner to shovel , not professional but sometimes SNOW Happens 😂,, SO MANY people today Just Suck ! Your guys are doing a Fine Job , Stay Safe
Awesome job brotha keep up the good work, from Idaho.
Wow great channel! Enjoying the content and mountain life! As a Canadian I'm happy to report we have much less snow here on the North Shore of Lake Erie in Ontario.
You Gotta Love the peoples compassion at that complex lol, lol, unless you live the life of snow removal day in day out, nothing for sleep , working on broken equip during the storm freezing wet an after storm , always nice to have compassionate people from a complex to top it all off , lol lol ,
peace an blessings, craig
THANK YOU AND YOUR MEN HARD WORKERS ALSO YOUR YOU TUBES I HAVE SNOW PLOWING BUSS LEARNING A LOT BLESS YOU STAY SAFE JOE CHANGING SEASONS LAND -SNOW
As an entrepreneur for 36 years I’ve learnt that 5% of your clients, will cause 95% of your problems. Don’t take it to heart. Just get rid of the 5% and your heart will feel lighter and you’ll sleep better, not thinking about Pyjama bottoms. 😂 I’m really enjoying these videos!!! I’m up here in 🇨🇦. Cheers boys and keep up the good work!!! You’ve got this! 😉
I feel for you guys be safe and careful. Prayers 🙏 🙏 🙏. It's snowing here gotta go shopping and get gas keep a fuel tank.
I love your channel! It’s so interesting.
Thank you so much!
Dude. F them basnitches. Just nice on. You’re great bro.
I hope that they got your power back on! Hang in there guys!!!
You did well with those folks. 👍
Great channel. This guy is a complete boss. That karen needs to feel what it's like to solve her own problems. People like her prefer to complain when they should say "thanks." These folks should throw you tips instead of insults.
Looking good Ben. Staying ahead of Mother Nature. I think what you have there is a Sierra Slurpee. Really enjoying your posts.
LOL...more like an ICEE. And its probably salty as hell!
i tought i had a prblem with 1 cm snow, keep up the good work, greetings from the Netherlands.
definitely my favorite youtube channel!
Excellent job for what your up against, can’t believe those people complaining. Keep up the great work.
Tell them to get a shovel and move it . Your the best man kudos to you bud a holes everywhere. I plowed my jobs in Colorado all day.i couldn't wait tto get home and check out what you did today!! Forget them
Can you imagine maintaining a polar expedition, wind and temp twice as bad. Seeing these guys and locals inspires me to visit California.
I don’t know how you are so patient. I myself would have went off on that lady. You are correct…this winter has been unprecedented. People just want quick results. Snow is beautiful but when we get 3 seasons worth in a few months it’s not fun.
Reminds me of some of the snow we had in Bend Oregon in the early nineties. Got use to driving in it. City folks don’t understand that you can’t be in a hurry in those conditions. Ice doesn’t care about computer nannies or ABS. When night falls and the temperature drops, that stuff will become very icy and nasty and put your vehicle in a ditch. Slow down and be careful up there ✌️
Makes you wonder how many roofs are damaged and going to leak when it all thaws.
Even if they do not collapse...many will leak. The weight is causing so much stress on the joints...and the flashing along chimneys or dormers, is going to break any seal under hundreds of pounds of pressure.
@@gobbletegook Most look to be 50-75 years old, no R45 insulation, dry and wet rot, no money spent on them in decades. It's the land that worth money, clean out the old garbage and put in high end condos for the rich LA snowflakes.
I’m a contractor as well and over the years dealing with KARENS like that I usually will just walk away from a job unless they owe a lot of money. If the job is small I’ll tell them to pound sand and good luck finding someone to deal with there miserable ass. Most of the time they have no clue what it takes to run business and how much hard work it takes. Not to mention when working in the new construction world these days a lot of times we wait for months to get paid which makes it even more aggravating!!! Those kinds of people are usually self centered and will never be satisfied and if you did a perfect job they won’t say thanks or compliment your hard ass work. I’ve done snowplowing and have ran a skid steer 44hrs straight and is absolutely brutal. That’s one of reasons I don’t plow snow anymore so I feel your pain. You do a great job and keep up the good work!!!!
So true
That couple who gave you the grief remind me of when you're in a fairly small community that loses power in a storm. They can never stand back with the larger perspective that they're not the only ones being inconvenienced. It's the world we live in today...self absorbed and narrow minded. They should consider themselves fortunate they're not in the lower elevations with massive flooding and having their properties being washed away with the current. Like you said, they need a reality check....big time.
Self-centered people have always been around.
I don't know if you realize it, but you are a historian. Documenting possibly the storm of the century. I'm sure the hard work that you and your crew are doing is greatly appreciated by your community, and if the Kerens don't like how your doing it, maybe they should get up at 2.00 am and push their own snow. I am enthralled with the content you are providing, and look forward to your uploads. Thank you for your hard work, and thank you for sharing this experience.
I hope that you guys can someday have a garage big enough to at least store a few of the vehicles, and even better, if it was able to get them in out of the weather when you needed to do repairs. I hate HATE HATE the fact that even my little snow blower needs to be adjusted or fixed in an unheated garage. I cannot imagine something like repairing a hydraulic line out in the cold.
Yeah, it’s not really the funnest, but we make it work
Well look who made an @xx of themselves. Not you bud. The lady needs calm down and grasp reality. I understand she is upset. It’ll be ok lady, your still alive and breathing so give thanks.
I subbed just to help support your channel. Here in Wisconsin, we know snow but nothing close to what you're experiencing. I can also easily see how tempers can flare and I'm sure some customers are at the end of their patience rope. I will tell you if you handled my property, my wife would probably have breakfast ready for your crew at least once a week! Appreciation goes a long way. Stay safe and keep up the good fight!
🙏🏻
Good luck & stay safe
I feel bad for you having to deal with those type of people... Next time push the pile so close that they cant get out! 😂
People like that want everyone else to compromise but those same inconveniences don't include them.
Awesome bring more snow, and rain 🌧️ we need the water
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Looks like a ton more OTW thru Tuesday then a few day break...gotta think the end is near but I see a little more after that.
Perfect snow to break equipment.
You can't please all the people all of the time. Tell them Home Depot sells snow blowers, and I'm sure you are not the most unprofessional person she has ever dealt with in her life, maybe the second most but certainly not the most. You and your crew are doing an amazing job in impossible conditions!!! Keep up the good work! I've subscribed after hearing the ungrateful couple.
🤣
Unhappy people always resort to hyperbole in order to gouge your eyes out without gouging your eyes out. I suppose the gas stations and grocery stores are gonna hear the same complaint from this woman for running out of food and gas. "Yeah well you shoulda known better!" Whatever, lady -- at least you've got power and heat.
@Mammoth Mountain Life haven't seen your channel before. I was there in mid February and it was great. This is crazy. Hopefully I'll be able to go back up by the end of this month.
I'm pretty sure that woman meets "the most unprofessional people she has ever met in her life" at least a couple times a day.
@@optimoprimo132 LOL
#1 rule with skid steers and loaders when moving snow is have all 4 tires on the ground. Forcing excessive pressure on the loader arms causes excessive wear on pins/bushings. You also lose traction with only 2 wheels touching the ground.
It might take multiple passes to move snow but it is much easier on the machines and operators as the machine is not hitting cracks and bumps in the pavement with the arms sending stress throughout the loader arms causing cracks in welds.
Otherwise you guys do a great job moving tons of snow!
I haven’t seen my lawn in 3/and1half months at 5000 ft elevation foothills on the way to Tahoe still have over a foot in my backyard 😵💫😵🤪 Broken 2 snow shovels . 🤬 I feel the pain too. 1 and half inches of rain on top of the snow.
I feel for you man. You're doing all you can but some people mistakenly think you're in charge of the weather and all it's effects. I used to be in a different line of work and was pretty good at what I did but there were times that I had to tell people, "Hey look. I'm sorry but I'm good but not God."
Unprofessional? I don’t think so. As someone who lives in New Hampshire and totally appreciates what you are dealing with (although not the quantity of snow), I think you all are doing a fantastic job. Hang in there.
Mammoth Lakes must have some strange zoning regulations. Do they routinely allow residential occupancies in commercial areas or structures that are primarily commercial or business use?
Just keep doing what you can do. Sometimes you just have to ignore the whiners. Stay safe Plow Brothers.
Attention: tennis will be canceled for the remainder of 2023
Snowman snow. Snowball fighting snow. Packs like crazy
That lady is a Karen. She needs to chill, you’re killen it.
28:35.. How to live where it snows.
1. Deal with it. 2. Learn how to make money with it. 3. Learn how to enjoy it. If you figure that out, there is no such thing as too much snow. Snowmobiling on 30 foot of snow in July at 80 degrees is crazy fun. Ever see a sad guy on a snowmobile?
I love when people try and give you grief in their PJ’s lmao
