It is snowing quite heavily here, very unusual for where I live, as I am by the coast and we don't get much snow. At just about six o'clock tonight we had about eight and a half inches - measured in the middle of my lawn with a breadknife!
I find it humorous that you folks are getting more snow than we are. We have certainly had our share of cold but most of the precip has been missing us. Be glad it is snow and not ice. They had major problems in the southern states with ice as they are not prepared at all for dealing with the roads and wintery conditions. Our road crews are very good about salt and cindering when it is bad.
