It started snowing about 5pm yesterday and was rain by 6 or so. Torrential downpours with crazy ass winds. It was only a slight drizzle by 7am this morning. The local roads on the way to the highway were all flooded.

Dc area crisis
The DC metro area had more than 1/8 inch of snow - so - its crisis mode here. LOL! High winds coming in later gusts up to 55.

Fricking Toronto people man, absolutely gobsmacked that you lot can't figure out a bit of snow and needed the military to bail you out that one year. Roads weren't wonderful, but put the truck in 4wd, some tunes on and just sat in the right cruising a good bit below the speed limit, but was pretty relaxing. Left a decent 50-100 ft probably between me and the next car, so wasn't too worried if there was a sudden pileup. Been in a 96 car pileup the one time and learned to leave a little more space after that. |

Hit 14" at 10:00. That was 12" (a real 12") in 3 hours.
For the first time this winter, they were right... |

I think it's just blowing around now, not sure about new accumulation... I had to shovel the fire exits at work 5 times. Hardly anyone showed up but I still did in my 240
One of the guys that lives a couple blocks from work didn't even show. |

I got two 40ft flatbeds carrying 20ton loads heading south stuck in NY due to these damn snow storms to support an schedule critical installation. Think the tow truck is working on bailing the first truck out now. Even though I'm in Charleston, this snow is a pain in my ass haha

We had about 5" of snow overnight, capped by a light glaze of freezing rain. The streets are already plowed down to asphalt, and just wet. Yawn.....

Saturday will be a bone chilling 25°F down here and they are expecting 30% chance of snow - I foresee a full blown statewide shutdown lmao.

Why is it when they get it so right, it's so bad.
Got the 12" they predicted

Ontario close to Niagara falls. We got 60cm, it stopped snowing around 11am. My street is still not cleaned. Me and some neighbors cleaned some of the street so we could move some cars around.

We are quite close to Lake Ontario and don't normally get much snow. This was unusual and the snow was quite dense in some spots. Snowie the snow-blower had a hard time.
