Hooves- Out towards Oswego county (2 hrs West of Saratoga) there have been as much as 15o inches of snow so far this winter. The areas around that have got pummeled too, luckily we have been spared all winter until last night and today. The snow is falling heavily here and we're suppose to get between 2 and 3 feet total. I am about 1 of 10 people who made it into our office today, out of 140 people. Roads are horrendous and it hasnt really even gotten started.

We've got about 4-5 inches on the ground, problem is we have alot of ice, the trees in my front yard are bending so bad that they are touching the ground if they haven't snapped, one tree is going to die, also there's a cable laying on my front porch going all the way down front yard...I would rather have snow than ice...

Workout for "HHH": 40 to 50 feet of driveway...on the Hickory Hill training track...
(not) breezing, more like "huffing & puffing" w/ the shovels out - 1 hour 45mins.

VA-DC-MD has any where from '3-'6 inches (in the last 2 days). Snow really isn't the problem here, it was all night sleetfest that has made the roads awful

Needless to say, i "attempted" to make it out of my court today with little success. Damn, looks like i'll just have to play Gulfstreem and Santa Anita all day..... it's a tough life

western Md, we've gotten about 3" of snow and 2" of sleet and rain on top of that. lucky enough it didn't coat the trees and lines. the roads are aweful!

GEEZ!, it just started POURING sleet and rain!

Everyone please be careful... that's the one thing we don't have to worry about down here in FL.
