[Gothic Sponge]

My county declared a state of emergency. I have a giant snow drift in front of my house. The snow is still coming down and is going to continue until around 8pm tonight. The strong winds have knocked my power out a few times. I'm afraid it's going to go out and stay out. How are you doing?

:scared:

1. We received about a foot here in the Capital Region, NY...

When I let Chuckiemutt out, it was up to his belly.

4. A foot? Then it was just flurries.

I grew up in Albany. :)

11. love the airdale!

we have one too -- 8 year old female goes by the name of DAX, when she gets "rev'd up" she's known as MAX-DAX

she was suppose to go to groomer yesterday -- but we rescheduled due to the snow

we also have a 5-year old greyhound (sunny) and 4 cats -- Kudra (19yrs), Dutchess (16yrs), Gato (4-5yrs) and Poohkah (3 yrs)

It seems to have started blowing around here. We have, I guess, a little over a foot. It's a very heavy snow here, smushing the bushes down. I'm concerned about the power too, if the wind really starts picking up more.

How're you fixed for candles?

[roenyc]

9. say nothing about losing power please...

please. out here its a monthy thing. in fact i was thrilled during the big east coast black out cause i wanted the rest of NYC to see what its like to live in Staten Island. we lose power so often its like living in a third world country. well actually it is a thrid world country out here in mind set. thats what the guy who was doling out the 9/11 funds said about it. tee hee.

13. I've got 1 candle and a bunch of flashlights.

I'm in Suffolk County.

8. If I could see out my basement windows,

I'd tell you. Lol. The snow is so plastered against my windows, I'm not seeing much. I can look upwards out my windows and watch the wind really, really whipping the trees and snow around.

10. Wilkes-Barre PA area

a little over a foot of snow in backyard -- winds have picked up so there's more drifting.

still snowing a bit -- but hard to tell how much is coming down versus blowing about

temperature outside is at 0-degree, windchills are at -20

local weather says another 1-3 inches

[Historic NY]

14. I don't know yet about state of emergency here in Orange County NY..

but the wind and snow are whipping around. The plow guy came but my driveway is filling up with drifts. I can't even figure out how much is there yet, but it is up to the top of the first panel on my garage
doors.

Road has been plowed but that looks to have been some time ago.I think I will just go back to bed, no since getting cold to find out if my newspaper came.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

17. The wind is starting to kick up here now, and I'd say maybe about

7" or so of snowfall so far. Less visibility than at any point that I noticed yesterday and last night.

I turned on the water earlier and the pressure was down. It's back up to normal now. :)

Meanwhile, here I am comfy and snug, electric blanket warming me, sipping lovely coffee and enjoying it all.

18. It's a friggin' blizzard here in Central MA

An absolutely, entirely, exhaustively, utterly raging blizzard.
:scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared::scared:

Snowing hard, temp 15 degrees, winds 20-30mph, 2-3 feet of snow so far. Here's the forecast for today:

Snow until late afternoon...Then snow likely late. Visibility one quarter mile or less at Times through midday. Total snow accumulation of 28 to 38 inches. Windy with highs around 16. Temperature falling to around 5 above this afternoon. North winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 50 mph.

19. look on the bright side.

the snow is pretty powdery, so it's not so heavy.
then again, it keeps of blowing around so you have to shovel it more than once.

[Gothic Sponge]

20. I'm not even going to try to shovel until tonight.

[stellanoir]

21. in coastal RI

no snow on my car, yet it's engulfed in 5' drifts. All but one of four doors to the house have enormous drifts abutting them.

Well over 2' has fallen here, and now it's coming down sideways. Yikes.

[liberalitch]

22. I was wanting some but here in hampton roads...

we dodged the bullet....
we'll get ours though!

[DODI]

23. Central CT checking in. We have about 12 -15 inches

Hard to tell with the drifting. Blizzard warning is up to about 2:00 p.m. Our news people keep saying this is the worst storm ever -- I don't think so, 1888 was a bit worse as was 1978.

[smbolisnch]

24. It completely missed us!

I am so disappointed! At least that means no shoveling :P
Stay warm and be careful if you have to go anywhere!! :pals:

[barackmyworld]

25. Boston has a ton

I don't even know how deep because I am not going to go outside.

[Theres-a]

26. Finally seems to have stopped in northeast CT...

:party: SNOW DAY!

27. same here in the Hudson Valley
