Kinda hard to tell what we got here in West Mansfield,the drifts are up to 3' and some lulls about 10" I'd guess we got about 14-17"Got the driveway and trucks all cleaned out.....Now off to work,it's gonna be a late day

we got about the same, 14-17" but had mixed precip, no real 3' drifts, the stuff is stiff and heavy. surprised none of the trees came down some are hanging real low.

southern ct right now maybe 10'' where i'm at but had winds up to 60 mph so snow blew every which way.still snowing hard and hopefully will end early afternoon.roads on interstates and local are all pretty much packed snow and ice because of winds.

Seen much worse but definitely significant, we got a lot at my house. I would say the 16 or so reported by SM36 is about the same here but we do have some drifts. Oh well , another winter has really started now.

I strategically aligned the cars in the drivesway so the Blazer can be used if the plow guy is delayed a day or two. He's a good guy but sometimes the conditions make it hard to get everywhere quickly. I tell him now that its only me at home and since I have the Blazer he should just worry about his other people and get me when he can. I'll be out when I want to be , one way or another. The Blazer is as good in the snow as it is on the beach sand , just go the opposite way with the tirepressure and it digs in and goes. I do 16 to 18 PSI on the sand but 42 in the snow, works well.

Heavy gusts as usual do to house location. I'm almost at the top of the hill between Abbot Run Valley and Blackstone Vally. Only 100 feet elevation but the wind really blows allong the two valleys and of course over the top.

We have no snow now but radar shows we are still in the area where bands will come through. I think 18 by the time it all moves out this afternoon. Good news is warm temps at end of week so we should have bare pavement soon. Living in New England , bare pavement in just a few days is pretty good as real storms go.
