We have 8 feet at our house. I have 2, my wife has 2, and Lucky, our dog has 4.
A few flakes have just appeared.
And the flakes are… my husband and kid 
No but seriously, The storm just arrived a few minutes ago. Everyone here is in a tizzy.
Folks in the DC area treat snowstorms like the end of the world.
Oooh! A SNOWSTORM! When will it be here??? When will it be here???
I made a snow angle last week. Hard to see now, time to make another.
IT’S THE WHITE DEATH!!!
Seriously - we have about an inch of fluffy stuff on the cars, but the roads look clear right now. Noah has to leave for work in a few minutes, I’ll have him text me when he gets there (we live on the top of one of Cincinnati’s hills, he’s got to go down to the valley of downtown) and see if it’s even worth worrying about.
Yes, as Caroluna says, the Balto-Washington metro area goes into a spiraling panic in the day preceding the fall.
Yesterday, the groceries were packed with people thinking they’d have to stock the larders through the new year.
But, they calm down, once they’re good and snowed in, and begin the resolute and intermittently jolly process of
digging out, helping neighbors, etc.
We’re looking at maybe 8 inches at the moment, but the most is slated to fall this afternoon and tonight. I guess my
next door neighbor, who started shoveling his driveway at 7am, is just getting a head start.
Angle?
The first recorded of this pun is attributed to Pope Gregory the great in AD 573. According to the venerable Bede, the pontif saw a group of blond-haired english (ie, Angles, as in Anglo-saxon) boys, captives who’d been brought to Rome to be sold as slaves. Moved by their beauty, he exclaimed “Non Angli, sed Angeli!” (Not angles, but Angels!).
I guess he liked blonds. If this story came to any sort of sticky end, Bede tactfully left that out of his account.
15 inches so far. Max the scottie says he’d rather hold it than go outside.
I am reminded of the reason I decided not to move back to Vermont.
I don’t believe that Lucky, our new dog, had ever seen a blanket of snow. She stepped carefully. Dot, our old dog, loved snow. It was the only kind of weather you could eat.
It looks like we got about 4 inches. I take the neighbor grocery shopping every Saturday. Amazingly, in West Virginia, this will all be on flat ground. I’m anxious to see how that goes.
We was suppose to leave for Wisconsin tomrrow, I don’t think it will happen, not with twenty feet alone just inside the car. I was in western North Carolina yesterday and I was able to stay about sixty seconds ahead of the eastern edge of the storm back to Virginia. No snow here yet just a large class 2 river in the back yard, the young puppy thinks it’s the greatest thing in the world. Have to go, need to wash and dry some more dog towels.
BTW a snow angle is what ya use to ice fish, I have no idea what all that Pope Gregory stuff is, the Chruch has always taken care of it’s youth.
Freddi the terrier/shep mix, loves it. You can bound around, stick your nose in it, bark until someone comes out and throws it at you. Good stuff.
It was below freezing for a couple of days earlier in the week.
Please send some to Alabama!
below freezing for over a week down here 
the snow was before that
youse guys are so behind on the weather
We’re a backwards and benighted nation.
I hates it when the weather comes from the Cascades 
I’m just a few miles south of the edge of the banana belt.
11 inches here and snowing hard. They have said this will set a new record for December snowfall here. However it is just fine here in the house.
last year here
this year, drizzle
This is behind my place.
They are having a hard time in the snow.
