    It started snowing up here and the plow just came by. Rain/snow line is about 30 miles max to the south. Hopefully, it’ll change over to rain soon enough to make the morning ride uneventful.

    yes,but not like our Northern buds on here. 12+ inch is a pretty good one. it turned to pure sleet which matted down the snow. sleet looked like a thunderstorm rain. its just lite sleet now and wind advisory tommorow. 30+ sustained at times. .I took the longway home. enjoy driving the backroads when its snowing

    we just started to get the small amount of snow we will get from the storm here in C-bus, and I was also on the way home from band practice. I love driving in the snow as well.

    We will get about 2 inches from the strom, and it will be all melted away by Tues afternoon :( :mad:

    I miss winter

    I got about 5" of snow, then it got windy, then it turned to rain with the temp *barely* above freezing. For about the last hour it's been Nor'easter winds and rain... what a mess. I'm hoping that it doesn't flash freeze tonight. I hope that everyone is making it through this with minimal damages to homes/vehicles.

    Good Morning! I woke to sleet pounding my windows and wind howling through the trees. My dog really hesitated at the door this morning...

    update 0504: snow plow just went by and is salting as well.

    Good morning all over 50. Did I tell you that I have no love for the snow. I got .5 inches while a friend of mine got 2 inches. I was located right on top of a weather pattern. Stay warm and stay covid safe. My brother is on his 6th day and still above ground.

    Winter storm emergency was a bust fortunately!

    Got a little snow yesterday and it was gone right after it stopped

    Was really worried about the drive to work this morning as the roads were still wet and they were predicting 25°

    Thankfully, the weather guessers got it wrong as usual.....34-36° on the ride in :yay:

    Good morning all. By the look of the snow bank from the plow, I’ll guess there was a healthy 5” - 6” before the rain moved in. Now everything is weighted down by a lot of rain. That’s going to be a joy to move. Looks like it changed to rain around 4:30 this morning according to my weather station with winds over 30 mph so far. I guess I’ll clean the driveway this afternoon after the “washing machine” stops…

    Good morning. We have about 8 inches in my yard and the snow snow is still coming. They predicted up to 11 inches by the time the storm is over this afternoon. I don't see us getting that but another inch or so may be forthcoming. I shoveled some of it last night, then turned in, hoping for the best. After some coffee, I will have to get at the shoveling. Fortunately, the grandson is off from school and the wife doesn't work today, so there is no rush.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good morning everyone. :hattip:

    That’s quite a storm barreling through the N.E.
    We had some snow flurries, but nothing stuck on the ground.
    Stay warm and safe.

    Shoveled the 20x20 deck. Now I have to get the sidewalks and brush off the heat pump and doors to the basement. I'm going to go slowly today. ;)

    Good Morning Folks :pccoffee:

    We got lucky and this storm missed us.
    You guys and gals be careful. Moving heavy snow can be bad for the heart. Don't over do it and take breaks.
