Wow! I can't hardly believe the amount of snow we have received from about 9 pm on the 22nd to 2 am on the 23rd. If I had to guess at least a foot plus. I could hardly get the front screen door open lol.

Yeah, this is probably the most I've seen come down continuously in one shot here. It started here in the Annapolis MD area yesterday around 1:30 pm and it's still coming down now.

I cleared my walkways 3 times last night between 5 pm and 10 pm. Wasn't much to clear each time, just wanted to stay on top of it so I wouldn't break my back. Went out around 10 this morning and cleared it again...took an hour and a half to clear the same area.

The drift between my Mustang and my Explorer isn't so bad, but on the other side of the Explorer and the neighbor's car, the snow drifts come up to the tops of the tires. Not looking forward to digging that out.

I have seen worse here but not by much.


The car is almost entirely hidden from view now. I say we have about an additional 8 inches since 2 am. This is pretty much straight snow fall not much of a drift in this pic.

Just far enough south in middle Tn. We had a couple inches and some ice. Rained a bunch at first so if the temps were just a bit colder it would have been a lot worse.

Stay safe guys!

My cousin said they just broke the all time record for their area at 28.5 inches and it's still coming down. They live in south central PA.

We got close to 3', but it's got warm the last couple days and about half has melted. What a sloppy mess.

Snow? Jackets? My flip flops depend on a month of downtime every year and so far they are complaining about being over worked.

Can I visit? As long as Noobz isn't invited. I think he prefers the cloudy place with men wearing wings.
