Still no snow yet from this storm in upstate NY. :( At least there is a couple inches on the ground from the other day.

Yea, I hate shovelling and I especially hate cleaning off my car.. did it three times today already.
I took my dog for a long walk in it earlier. She loves the snow.

Took me three hours to get home. I just came in from shoveling. It's hard to say because it's drifting, but it looks like we have about ten inches already.i think the real snow hits tomorrow.

Bring it on!

I hate being snowed in. I liked it when I lived in Philly on the same block as all my friends, but it sucks when you're in the suburbs and there's nothing to do but take walks around the neighborhood. Can't drive.

Yaeh, we had the snow pretty good... at Sunday River ski mountain... fresh tracks all day.

I gotta talk Skeetah Bait into going again tomorrow. Next weekend is gonna be the pits, they're forecasting rain for Thursday. Talk about raining on our ski parade....

We wound up with 8" of dry powder snow. Not too bad to shovel and it looks like a lot of it might melt this week with some rain midweek.

Rich the storm took a more easterly track. I have about a foot here.

I saw on the news that you had higher totals up there. That's usually the case because when I go up to the Pinchot trail to ski after a snowstorm there's always more snow in the elevations and the foothills of the Poconos. It's like a different world sometimes compared to the valley cities.

What's up with people who go out in a blizzard with rear wheel drive cars?

I had to go around two idiots who got stuck side-by-side in the two left turn lanes at a light Saturday night. A Miata and a BMW - just sitting there spinning their tires. I hate to advocate new laws but some folks are just plain stupid.

We got about 12" at my house. Was out hunting on Sunday and some of the drift snow was up past my knees in some places. Maybe I can fit some snow shoeing in tonight in back of the house when I get home from work.

I know what you mean Scorchfire. It doesn't bother me to drive, but it's nice when these storms happen on a weekend, then you've got plenty of time to enjoy the storm and clean up after it.

Snow!! I think i convinced my dad to come up for the weekend to go snowmobiling, and what a great weekend it's going to be. 5 inches last sunday, 5 inches tuesday night, 4 inches yesterday, and 5-7 inches in the forecast for tonight, makes a great ride, plenty of time to get the groomers out between snows, nice base, nice fresh powder, looks like the best weekend for snowmobiling that i've seen in a long time :D

I'm still waiting patiently for that first significant snowfall of the season. It's usually in early December.

Hardly! Well, at least in the Delaware Valley. It's been 60+ degrees all week; very unusually warm for this time of year...

Yeah it's even getting cooler down along the coast; I had to scrape the frost off my car this morning. Winter comes a bit later down in these parts, but the cooler weather definitely feels right.
