New Jersey Man Lets Robot Handle Snowstorm — Wakes Up To A Clear Driveway

January 27, 2026

While snow piled up across New Jersey this weekend, one homeowner in Morris County decided to skip the shovel, stay cozy inside, and let a robot do the hard work instead.

The result? A viral video showing an autonomous snow blower clearing a massive driveway all on its own — racking up millions of views online.

 

The homeowner, Tom Moloughney of Chester, believes the snow-clearing robot is a perfect example of how technology and AI are beginning to take over everyday chores — and make life a little easier.

“I had it running all night,” Moloughney said. “When I woke up in the morning, my driveway was completely done.”

The device he used is a YARBO autonomous snow blower, which is available for purchase online.
