Oh to the contrare....Last winter I purchased a super charged 32inch snowblower with a 12 hp engine. With 2 teenage sons inside watching their 52yo father snow-blow I sure as heck don't want them feeling sorry for me!!!!!!

Absolutely amazing winter storm here....

As of 8:15a.m., my unofficial "snow pole" says 26" of snow.  Its still snowing hard and the NWS is forecasting 5-9" today.  The wife took some digital photos and I will post some images up on my site soon!

@Chris

Sounds like fun. I love snowblowing. Used mine 1x so far which is unbelievable.

@Michael

Holy Crap! The cities there are gonna be buried for a few days.

Here is one for everyone......I was woken up by the sound of "thunder" this morning!!  Strange phenomenon....Local news stated that there was a "Thundersnow storm" sitting over my area....  

[CNYWeather]

Thundersnow is very cool Michael. We'll get that in early winter up here
with heavy lake effect snow. Just like a summertime thunderstorm, except HEAVY snow.

Now if one would look at my site, the current conditions show Dry, Night Time. Tha has not once switched over to snow, or heavy snow at all during this storm.

And your rain bucket shows zero tips.  Are you using a metar for conditions?

FWIW, I see "Obscured - snow; blowing snow" but I also saw it display Dry before that came up...

Have to agree with Tony holy crap that is a lot of snow. It is going to bite when all that stuff melts to. Be careful!

25 inches measured at Harpers Ferry, WV.  I have a 120 foot long driver and I thank God that I have a snow blower.

I will say one thing that WFO Sterling office did an outstanding job on this event.  They put out a Winter Storm Watch on Wednesday afternoon for Friday morning thru Saturday and then followed it up with a Winter Storm Warning on Thursday.  They forecasted 20 to 30 inches starting on Wednesday, which verified very well.  The winter storm warning mentioned locally heavier amounts.  Kudos to the WFO Sterling office for a job very well done.

Can I please borrow your snow blower?  Man, my back is sore!

[warwickpaweather]

Looks like we topped out at 17.7 inches. Snowblower got a good workout today(and I'll do the rest of the neighbors tomorrow).  Mid week's storm looks like 8-12 or so for my area.

Sure come on over Michael.  Hope your back feels better.  It doesn't look like you will get a long rest as snow is expected again Tuesday/Tuesday night.  Back in 2003 when we got 24 inches and I vowed never to shovel our 120 foot driveway again.
