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.....

When I woke up this morning, I noticed on my weather station's screen that the temperature near our retirement lot in the South Carolina Midlands was two degrees colder than it was here at home in upstate NY.....

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.

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.

Ya you guys got way more than us in KW. We maxed out about 13" (33cm). All of our major roads were cleared before 5pm and my low priority street got a half assed single pass about 30 mins ago.

I had to dig my way into my driveway. This was after I tried plowing my way in of course.

Yeah I paid $40 to get the bulk of it done, still took us 2 hours to clean up the sides and the doorways etc, it was a LOT of snow, more than i've ever seen for sure.

Yikes. I hope we never see that much snow here.

Supposed to hit mid-40s today. It'll feel like spring. Back to normal winter temps tomorrow, though.

I'm surprised to hear that. There was one year a few years back we got hammered with multiple storms that dumped more than 2 feet of snow. I think one hit almost 30 inches. I would have thought you guys got more up there than we do.

Toronto is usually upwind of the lake-effect snowbands from Lakes Erie and Ontario, and doesn't get dumped on like the snowbelts south of Buffalo and the Tug Hill Plateau south of Watertown.....
