It shall be called, "Snowtorious B.I.G"
This thread is dedicated to the blizzard (It's also trending on twitter) that is blanketing the Mid Atlantic area...if you have pics or thoughts or whatever...drop them here.

I like that better than "Snowmageddon."
I got out the yardstick...I have 19 inches on my deck and 23 inches in my front yard. 75 miles to the east in my hometown, the measurement (according to my old next door neighbor) is "up to Dave's shoulder" which would be around 4 1/2 feet.

I've only ventured into the front yard - 24 1/2 inches. My brother (in Washington County) has "close to three feet" - they could only see the ears of their Doberman when he was outside (between leaps and bounds).
I do have to say, the snow effects were awesomely beautiful last night. It reminded me of my childhood, when we once got snowbound near Whipple Dam (over Tussey Mountain from PSU).

I was going to take a picture of my yard here in CA as a joke, but I figured you guys would call me a wimp. I think it's sprinkling?

I'm afraid to poke fun because we could still get ours sometime this year and I don't want to jinx Michigan. I feel your pain though. That much snow is such a PITA. You shovel and shovel and you end up not even knowing where to put it anymore. What a nightmare. When we get hit like that, I try to shovel every few hours, because it gets way too overwhelming otherwise (not to mention heavy!).

It's about 60 degrees here in DFW. I wish I could send some of this weather to y'all.

We didn't get so much as a flurry here in CT. Envy me. 
Stay safe and warm, everyone.

Just a friendly reminder to anybody who has a gas furnace that vents to the outside through a pipe on the wall of your house rather than the roof.. make sure it's clear of snow. This is a carbon monoxide risk.

It looks like we may get an inch or two, but nothing big.
Stay safe out there everyone.

Love the title! Actually all of them are good.
Poor Doggie - talk about your yellow snow!
Sorry, no snow in sunny F.L.A. today. But it's getting chilly here in the northern part of the state. I might have to turn on the heat.
