    Looks like it will miss us up North. Not complaining though. That means it will be easier to go out and cut some of next years firewood supply over the next few weeks here.:saw::axe:

    We have a white Christmas, only problem is it rained but not enough to melt it off. Lawn is white and extra crunchy and slippery. Driveway probably should have been plowed, thought it would melt, now 4wd to get out and don’t try to get the mail.

    Any where from 5” to 18” forecasted here. I guess they got their bases covered. Let it snow!

    Yeah, this morning on my way to MD, they said 14-20” for us. It better kick it up a notch to make that, although it is supposed to continue till 4am.
    I just got my first round of snow-blowing done. I’d say we are around 6”, maybe 8” if you like big fish stories, lol.

    We were supposed to have 1-3" per hour after midnight. Plows went by here at 1 am. I figure time to get up. I look out and only 2" on the ground. Light, powdery, barely any wind here.:rolleyes: 20 degrees. I think with the pretty cold air, the flakes are staying small.

    It was pretty crazy around here yesterday afternoon, cars lined up for gas, supermarkets were busy and last minute things to do for a lot of people.

    Looks like about 6-8" for totals. :banana: We started to get a snow/sleet mix around 5 last evening and that cut down on accumulations. I do see some drifts on the back patio but not to bad. Get the plowing and blowing done and then uncover the wood piles to do some splitting tomorrow.

    Hard to tell here. Real light stuff and windy. Half the driveway and front yard are bare, the other half looks like to have over a foot.

    I’ll definitely have to get back out and snow blow again this am. With wind chills they said it feels like teens.
