At last count, from my driveway, we had 19 1/2 with it still coming down, but it's real fine now. Earlier the flakes weighed about a pound each. Oh, yeah, I'm in MD at the moment, about 20 miles from DC to the north.

I'd say we've only got around 6-8" so far here on the coast.  Only had a 1-2" all day until dusk.  I pushed a few woodlots out today(without the bow) that you can't legally hunt.  Must've seen 50 deer.  If I can get my car out of the parking lot tomorrow I'll be out again.

Bunker up and throw another log on the fire.  Hope you all manage the blizzard of '09 without incident.  It was a little misty here today.

Just went out and checked. There's about 5" on the ground now and it's coming down hard. The TV says we're suppose to get around 9" with the coast getting a foot or more...but then again I remember them saying the blizzard of 78 was only going to be a dusting...

Finally A storm coming up the coast missed us. We got zero snow on the Pa-NY boarder and everything stayed east of us. ............

I haven't been outside today (sprained my ankle yesterday afternoon dragging a deer across a dry creek bed), so I don't know how much we ended up with. When I finally got home last night we only had maybe 3-4".

We've got 21 inches and no power, we're running on the generator. I've got some limbs in the yard I've got to get cut up. They're too big to drag. It's a mess here but I'm sure alot of folks have it worse.
