we received 12.5" and it is still coming down, but slower.
It all happened overnight.
Anyone else get dumped on?

We got maybe three inches here. Nothing major, the roads still look to be good, though the rain and stuff before the snow started freezing early yesterday and I could hardly get any traction. I parked the sucker shortly after. All I need is a semi-truck that can stop making my trunk part of the front seat.
 
Yeah we got it really bad here also.
I've been out 5 times so far today and in less then a half hr
it is covered again...
I'm a building Manager for 50 units not really big.. but when
your snow removel company says they are not comming out till the roads are plowed leaves me with no choice but to drag out the snow blower...

I'll see if i can post up some pics once the white out stops..
 
I think we ended up with around 8 inches here. They were calling for the possiblity for a lot more but as always it just never hits heavy in the Fort and always seems to go around both sides of the county. The snow was said to drift around a lot and it definately did that but its not too bad. I havent ventured out on the roads yet so hopefully they arent too bad.
 
yeah we got slammed pretty good in Illinois. Here is my poor daily driver GT.

Little history for my town..
On the worst winter we are lucky if we get 3 inches

of 24 to 36 inches of snow....
And is still snowing so after my little nap will be out again around 4 A.M.
to do this alll over again...

Even this bad boy had a time to clear this snow... as it took 6 hrs each time
out...
I got lucky and found a company that will be here in the morning .....
This has to be a record braking snow fall for this area.. This is nothing
from were i born in Parry Sound but for here was something else.
 


3 inchs with the first storm, then an aditional 8-9 inchs. Althou in the areas where the wind didnt catch the snow, it is about 18 inchs deep. Made work really interesting. I drive a yard spotter truck, and we told the plant manager we were closing the lot. He looked at me like I was crazy.
