For some reason I've never been able to run in snow. I'm way too un-coordinated.

I can't figure it out. I think any winter I've had in NYC has been peanuts compared to what I experienced in Providence.
My parents called me to make sure I had supplies. I do, but it's NYC and it takes something MAJOR to get stores to shut down. Also, snow plows start working immediately during a storm, so getting to and from work tonight was a little wet but not so crazy.
I ran in snow for the first time last week (I'm training for a 1/2-marathon so I am kind of like the Postal Service when it comes to long runs). It wasn't as bad as I thought. I definitely felt the instability around my ankles more.

Drives me nuts. People are acting as if we are in LA and have never seen it before.
Just make sure you have enough food and stuff to last for a couple of days and chill out.
PS. Stay off of the roads if you are scared. Please.

I haven't a clue how I missed this. Hilarious!

I'm currently buried under about nine inches of snow, and it's still coming down. No mail delivery today, though I did get a UPS delivery.
Fortunately, neither my husband nor I had to go anywhere today. He can work from home if necessary, I nearly always work from my home office, and we have plenty of food, water, and most importantly a well-stocked bar. 
Stay safe and warm, everyone.

2-5 inches expected in North Texas.
I guess that's what I get for bragging about our good weather

We didn't get nearly that much at this end of the state - 4 inches tops in the Hartford area.

It's not a bunch (just heard on the news that they're now expecting up to 7 inches), but it's a lot for Texas.
