I hate snow! I can remember praying for a lot so in the morning Salty Brine would give us a day off from school.

Just remember , for every adult hoping there is just a little snow , there are ten kids somewhere hoping for a lot! :)

no snow what so ever here. 37 deg A little rain and wind, not bad at all, way overblown. Roads are fine. I can't believe they closed schools for this.

I swear the weather channel has morphed into a reality show and it has become way too dramatic. Just tell me the weather, I don't need to see some jerk making snowballs in Atlanta.

Easy 18"+ here in Hartford area of CT and still falling like mad. Dug a path to my Taco, hopped in and drove to work. Of the 150+ employees, 4 of us made it in and I had to dig out one from the snow bank out front of the office. :smash:

Pete, good luck if your wife pops today!

Deep , wet and heavy here. Big pile at end of driveway from plow. Oh well , its not like it hasn't happened before.

It would be nice to go a couple of weeks without any new snow though. This every few days stuff gets old fast.

9 inches here, 5 foot pile at the road.

Wet snow.

Brushed the cars off and about 2 hours later there was another inch or two. It just looks like insignificant flurries now but its still adding up. The stuff i brushed off the car is so high i may have to shovel near the door to get it open. Blazer is much higher off the ground so not a problem.

Just brushed another solid 3 off the cars again. This is definitely not just blowing snow. This is new snow. That's 5 more since it "stopped" this morning. Its really hard to tell a total because the wetter earlier snow is collapsing and the new snow is very fluffy powder. Could be as much as 20 total between last night and today. Wall at end of dribeway is now at least 4 feet. I hope the plow guy gets here before it really gets solid!

I hate snow! :wall:

1 degree Celsius sea surface temperature anomalies gives 10 to 15 percent increase in rainfall thus larger snow banks

you mean in QPF potential. and the temp gives you the fluff factor
