Its snowing here right now, but we only have about 5 inches on the ground so far. They are predicting about 8" overall. There was just enough to have some fun driving in to work this morning. I did a few 4wd donuts with my Explorer in the parking lot here. There is a guy out in the parking lot changing his alternator right now. We can barely even see him its snowing so hard.

Thank God were not expected to get 2 feet like you guys!

[Philly5.0girl]

Snows a-here.

It just started about an hour ago and there is already almost an inch on the ground. They said it wasn't supposed to start until 2, so maybe since it started early it will end early.

[slickshift]

It's early here too
It just started
It's 12:30
It wasn't supposed to start till 4 or 5

[Hissing Cobra]

Yeah, we already have 4 inches that's left over from the other day. Now we're getting another 12. Man, I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SPRING!

[fredzilla]

Nothing here Yet but,damn it is cold.Latest
forecast calls for 24-32".Tomorrow is gonna
suck.My back is going to be sore.

[slickshift]

Uh-oh
I can't see the river anymore
It's coming down pretty good now

It is really cold
I was working outside this AM so wrapped up I felt like Kenny from South Park

[me-chanix]

The snow started around 10am here and is up to about 3 inches so far. And they still say that the worst is still to come....

[Capri50]

im about 40 mins north of philadelphia. it's coming down strong and steady, maybe 5 inches now.

i like this time of the year. I get to have fun with explorer.

[me-chanix]

I'd get pics but I'm on my brothers laptop right now. From the pic, it looks like it's comming down about 3 times harder here than where your at. Hopefully that means that it's ending as I have a canopy out there that I have to go out and bang the snow off the roof every about 30 minutes. :(

[me-chanix]

Geeze...It's up to 7.5 inches now :(

[slickshift]

It's blowing around alot here
But not really accumulating
I was gonna go out and take some pics, but it doesn't look like much so far
Maybe an inch

[eric5oh]

I've got 8" right now, and I'm southwest of Lake Michigan. I have some friends who live closer to the lake and they have 13" right now. It is still snowing. I was one of the few who made it into work today for dome overtime.

[me-chanix]

I'm up to almost 9 inches. It's great though, they say if the warmer front with sleet and rain doesn't hit me, I could get up to 16 inches of snow :cry:

[goose]

Getting nailed. I'm close in proximity to Philly5.0girl and Capri50 it seems. I don't think I'm going anywhere soon. Spring, hurry up!

[me-chanix]

Spring, hurry up!

I definately second that.

[gtluke]

yeah we have like half a foot here in jersey. they called a state of emergency so i had to come home :(
i was out doing drifts all day long in my galant with my GF.
i love snow

[BetterDays]

6" is a state of emergency?

We have around 10" here and it's still coming down.

Go Steelers!

[85 Notchback]

It hasn't stopped snowing here since October!! Atleast you guys don't get -50 weather like us, now that sucks. We had a chinook last week, so most of the snow melted, but it's starting again already... Back down to -25 too :x

[goose]

It hasn't stopped snowing here since October!!

I always try to remember, "at least I'm not in Canada". :) Nothing against Canada, except for the harsh winter weather!

[85 Notchback]

BC isn't bad on the coast, it just rains all winter there..

[gtluke]

6" is a state of emergency?

Go Steelers!

well, its 6" and its not going to stop for another 24 hours so they want to evacuate the roads

my town is on the side of a huge mountain, so i kept seeing people sliding down the mountain and smashing into tree's and curbs and crap
good stuff

[85 Notchback]

That sounds sweet luke... Car tobogganing LOL

[gtluke]

when it gets REAL icey, i'll take a sled up the hill and fly down the street at full speed. i have to have someone watch for cars for me though. its fun sleigh riding on concrete.
till you rearend a parked car :(

[me-chanix]

I gotta take a visit up there and go concrete sledding.

[slickshift]

Ug, it's getting kinda nasty now
I heard helicopters when I was shoveling
There's only one reason helicopters fly in a blizzard 'round here
It means Lifestars had to land on the bridge (Rte 95 over the Connecticut River)
That can't be good

[LTDScott]

I just got home from a Mexican restaurant where I ate my dinner out on the outdoor patio. I drove home with the sunroof open, but I had to roll up the windows because it was a little too cold. Brrrr, winter.

[ethangsmith]

Williamsport, Pennsylvania reporting in at 4 inches. It is lightly snowing still. We are supposed to pick up an additional inch overnight. I called mom to see how much they have back at home in Lititz, Pennsylvania and she said there is about 7 inches there. Tomorrow they are expecting flurries, 15 degrees, and a 25 mph wind!

[goose]

Stuck my camera out my bedroom window just now:

You just have to rub it in don't you :P

Sometimes I wish I lived in CA, then I remember their emissions....and I love it here :D

Whatchu talkin bout, Willis? My car has a full engine/trans swap from another car, aftermarket intake/exhaust/heads/cam, makes about double the horsepower than it did from the factory, and is 100% smog legal and runs clean!

Not to mention I could actually drive my car right now (well if it was running, that is).

But if you want to rub anything in, I'm sure a house in your neighborhood costs 1/5 what it does here ;)

[me-chanix]

I wouldn't go as much as 1/5, maybe 1/2 since housing prices around me are rising.

[LTDScott]

Just saw on the news the other night, average home price here is $495K. That's rub-in-able.

[slickshift]

Midnight
Just got in from shoveling about 7, 8 inches
It's tough to gauge 'cause it's drifting
They say on the TV another 12 hours to go

[Capri50]

after a little shoveling I decided to go out and have a good time tonight!!

man was this fun. looks like close to a foot, but lots of drifts everywhere.

my neighbors must think i am nuts. loud cars in the summer, 4x4's driving into snow drifts in the winter. :nuts:

Ok, maybe not even 1/2....The average for a new two story home is around $500k here.

[79 cobra]

I got about 10 inches of snow and I'm driving my four eyed through it .

8O

[slickshift]

9 AM
It's blowing like crazy, maybe 40+MPH gusts
Snows still coming down
My porch I shoveled last night @ midnight is still clear, but other parts I shoveled have 3 feet on them
I can see the neighbors minivan from here
The drift behind it goes up to the roof and spreads out for 25 feet behind it
She's not going anywhere for a while

[me-chanix]

Just gained another 7.5 inches last night to make the grand total 18 inches :cry: Guess I'm not doing anything outside today besides shoveling.

[Mike 83 GLX]

We ended up with a foot of snow instead of just 8". Its nice and sunny today, but only reaching 17* F with steady 20+ mph winds. It took my wife and I 2hrs to shovel our driveway and sidewalks.

[slickshift]

Prolly got a foot, maybe a little more
Hard to say, it drifted all over
Finally done shoveling, can get all the vehicles out of the drive
Some places it was 6"...some places 3'
The wind is still whipping around out there
Some storm
