I have a boy at Annapolis with one of my cars. Since he grew up in Memphis, this should be interesting.

We live in north Georgia where we had a dire forecast of ice followed by 2-10 inches depending on elevation. Schools closed for two days. Friday you could have played touch football on major roadways because the prognosticators and the gummint put out severe Snowmageddon hype.

We had two days of cold rain and a half inch dusting of snow as the front went through.

I think you guys will survive this up north.

I grew up in upstate NY and saw many an unnamed winter snowstorm dump feet of snow with little news coverage.

Over this crap.

Nothing here off exit 5 route 84 as of 0316 hrs.
Southward towards Jersey, though, might have something.
ASnow expected to start at this location later on today around 0700 or so *maybe*.

Radar shows snow, nothing on ground.

Thanks for caring!

I plan to cocoon for the weekend...unless called in to work Sunday, that is. Just checked outside and looks like 2" or so.

NE MD. 0332 - 5-6 inches on the ground with maybe a 20 MPH wind. Coming down at a healthy clip now. Went out for a minute and could hear tires intermittently spinning at a fast rate in the distance. Someone is jammed up.

Good time to be a “crazy prepper”, though.

What is this all about???? Here in Colorado, a foot of snow is a light dusting. C’mon people, it’s Winter. Is this a snow microaggression? Do we need to set up a safe place without snow? Do we need snow therapy?

3-4 inches on the ground on the foothills around Hood River, OR, but this is stale snow, weeks old.

We just got brushed by this storm as it was getting cranked up: A “nice” snow of about 5” on top of about 2” left from prev. snow. Enough for the kids to play in, but not too bad to shovel.

The most snow I’ve ever experienced was close to 2’, but IIRC, we got it in 3 waves over maybe a 5 day period. It’s a bit hard for me to imagine 2-3 ft. in one day, with blizzard strength winds. (I can imagine the snow, just not me digging out without serious mechanical assistance!)

Good luck to all “in the path” of this one.

I am very definitely snowed in, as is a whole lot of Maryland. I could ski or snowshoe elsewhere if I really needed to, but that’s not happening unless something really bad happens.

It’s beautiful and peaceful. I’m enjoying this. I have electricity, which is really nice, but I could cook, stay warm, and have plenty of water even if we lost power. “Prepping” isn’t about being ready for a catastrophe worthy of a Hollywood movie and just as unrealistic. It’s about being ready for the things that actually happen every few years - like this weekend - and not letting the unexpected interfere with enjoying life’s beauty.

3 to 4 inches on the ground in the Bronx, NY. Coming down strong. Started around 9pm. Hoping it doesn’t get to bad. Have a new job to start and may have to travel to Jersey.

Falling quickly, but thankfully it’s not heavy snow.

Have 6" in Western Pa east south east of Pittsburgh. Temps at 17º with trace winds.

Always get more here in the ridges. The winds are beginning to change from southeast to northeast. It is a very fine powdery snow. We will probably get 8 to 10" more. The winds won't be picking up until tomorrow.

Blowing snow always is frustrating with the winds changing directions. No big deal here, just a nuisance and a very very long driveway down a ridge.
