It's snowing about an inch an hour here, just north of Baltimore.

About to jump in the truck and have some fun...

Getting our fair share.

Definitely got at least an inch of fall during the time I was giving blood. I think it was about an hour.

Should be starting here (Boston) in a couple of hours. They're saying it'll be 2 to 3 feet of it. Luckily I don't have a car or even a driveway to dig out this year  :D

I'm in Hamilton, Ontario Canada.  And there's probably 3-4 feet outside. 

Damm there was an auction in Toronto today and probably nobody was there because of all the snow.

Halfway between Boston and Providence... we've gotten a few inches but are supposed to get close to two feet before it's done.

Brattleboro, VT.  Snowing here, about 6-8" right now, with no signs of slowing down currently.

We got over a foot dumped on us this morning, and they're saying probably another 6-12" overnight. My snowblower has been getting a workout.

We've got about 6-8 inches with another 12" planned for tonight. Fun sledding with the wife and kids.

Here's the view from out my kitchen window right now. That poor bastard is going to have to dig out his Passatt once he's got his little pathway dug out. Meanwhile, I'm responsible for shoveling a 36"x24" piece of sidewalk right outside our front door  ;D

It's still snowing too.  :o

I'm in TN and we got nearly a 1/4" here.  We are in fear of our lives.  OMG help us.  This may not melt off until 10:00 tommorow.

I didn't know, now I can't run to the store and pick up bread, milk, and water. 

I just hope we make it through tommorow.  Obviously, schools will be closed for the rest of the week... ;)

I was very disappointed with our snowfall actually.

We only got about 4-5". :(

It was coming down really hard for a while, and then just stopped. Never to start again.

Now we are just left with a nasty cold wind blowing the already fallen snow in our faces.

We're over two feet and it's still snowing.  My civic is completely covered in a drift, you can't see any sign of other than a mound of snow.

They were forcasting 10 -  18" for our area and then a low pressure system shoved the storm to the east and we only ended up with 8".   Saved my back from a lot of pain!

We've got the same as Mr. C (I'm about a half hour south of him).  My Honda keeps coming in and out of view depending on the wind covering and uncovering it.  I'd post pictures but Mr C pretty much has it covered.

The same storm that pounded MrC got us too.  We only got 12" and 3 to 4 foot drifts.  But we got -5 temps and gusts up to 50 mph.  My dogs refuse to step outside.  They may explode if it doesn't warm up soon! :o
