Even though there is a roof on the ramp, the snow does blow on it, especially in front of the door
Behind those two doors sits my Toro, but with a pair of boots and walking close to the building I will get it and come out the front. This is when I wish I had an extra remote for my garage door as Chris Howard clears it out in great shape for me. When I think there might be a storm coming, I usually leave my Toro and Electric Cord in the Mud Room, but felt we wouldn't be getting that much snow, so brought it out to the garage.
I usually blow out a path to the front door so I have to exits - Now I doubt that we got over 5 or so inches of snow, it just piled up with the winds to make it look like more. It is actually very light and fluffy.
