We had about an inch on Friday, but virtually all gone now. Not enough to close schools much to the disappointment of my six year old granddaughter who wanted to stay at home to play in it!
Here in Pennsylvania we got close to a foot and a half. Still snowing and the winds are picking up. Snow, strong wind and lots of trees (which is what "Pennsylvania" means) will get you to cross your fingers that the power stays on.
I went to take my standard morning pee and looked out the window to see to white specs swirling around outside. My first thought through the morning grogginess was "shit the dryer vent is clogged again". But wait, I'm not drying any clothes. I looked down and there was a slight accumulation on my patio table.
I ran outside and made a little tiny snowball. Eh, so much for snowmageddon!
Yeah Craig, that is hilarious.
DataGuy, thanks for reminding me why I don't live in the northeast.
We got a bit over 2 feet. They are calling for rain soon. Oh boy, ice covered snow mountains along the sides of the roads (only plowed to 1 1/2 lanes wide).
GP - one think will you notice in Western Europe is that there has not been much winter so far, really just a wet extension of Autumn. December was the wettest on record here, but also the warmest December too. So things will be green and well advanced. Enjoy the Netherlands, you are of course, used to flatness!
In the last 15 minutes the really heavy rain has reached us. That, we are told, is part of the same weather system that dumped all the snow on the Eastern Seaboard last weekend!

My wife walking in the blizzard last night
You can actually see the ground in many places. It looks horrible.
ETA, updated to 7.2 inches.
Time for reports from the field
That's the current status sir! *salutes*
This is hilarious (and true).

Also, you can turn the snow off now. Much more and I'll have to start brushing snow off various roof surfaces - bit of a drag that....

Sounds like later this week the I-95 corridor and New England could get more snow....
