We got an inch of snow last night but the high today has only been 12 so the salt on the roads isnt working. They are giving heavy snow for Thur through the rest of the week. Someone needs to remind our local weather man that it isnt a forcast when you look outside and post what is already happening.

OMG - it's been snowing here for 3 days non-stop! An inch of snow and the salt on the roads isn't working? We drive on 18-inches of solid packed ice here.

We have no temperature - the winds won't stop and the snow won't stop - and everyone is out and about.

What do they call "heavy" snow where you are?

The inch of snow last night was from flurries. Here they call heavy snow 5-6 inches or more in a 24 hour period. I know it is nothing compared to what you deal with. The most we ever had here was 17 inches at once. My old clunker car wouldnt like driving on or on 18 inches of ice lol.

Blizzard 2000 - once again the lake wasn't frozen - and the snow never stopped for almost 2 days - we had 14 feet of snow in the driveway, my second floor deck was gone - I thought it fell off the house and we had a mountain of snow over the roof. But when we finally got a thaw - the deck was still there. they had to get the national guard to move the snow down to the lake and dump it there - some was put on trains and sent to other states for winter activites.

We got about 8 inches in the past 6 hours - and it's still falling.
