So who else is getting dumped on today? Around Detroit here, they're saying 8" by the time it's all done, 12" if you're closer to Ohio. I can only imagine what Ohio and Indiana are getting now. From what the radio was saying, it's apparently a lot worse there.
 
Not sure how much snow yet, weather forecast for NE Ohio says 6-8 inches maybe for where I am. Snowed yesterday afternoon into the early evening. Temperature warmed up and rained late through the night! Ice on the trees etc, now sleet and freezing rain. More snow later today when temperature drops again. Merry Christmas!
 
-40 wind chills here. and to think i ran out to get the paper in a shirt and shorts! we probably got 6 inches in the last two days, supposed to get 4 more.

Sounds like perfect driving weather!
 
We got about 6" overnight, with about another 6" to come although right now it's freezing rain, yikes!

I decided to just stay home today, even though I had already borrowed my mom's car so I didn't need to drive the Corvette in this stuff. I'm now off work until after the new year, so I don't need to go anywhere! We're supposed to get rain and 50 degrees by the middle of next week they say, and a couple of days before that where it's sunny and 40-45! (hopefully it's true)
 
Believe it or not, we actually got 2 inches here in Ok-ra-homa yesterday. As you can imagine, not many Okies can drive in the snow and there were a ka-billion fender benders.

This born and bread Buffalonian can attest to that after having lived there for 5 years. If it makes you feel any better, Texans are worst.

-7 below this morning with 10mph winds. Car wouldn't start, the night killed my battery.
 
Eight below day before yesterday, now 46'F and foggy like you wouldn't believe. M1 0w40 is in the crankcase.

The ground froze but now the top two inches of mud thawed out. We'll get what Ohio has soon enough.

About the same wind chill here in Doo-Dah Land, but no snow - yet!

And I thought Pablo was the only one running around in shirt and shorts.

It's about 20 here.

I don't care to see how well Amsoil ATM flows at these temps. I'll stay in side with my glass of Rum and diet vanilla pepsi, and the gas log fireplace going thank you

Synthetic sugar in your cola, synthetic fireplace, synthetic oil... at least your booze is real!

The amazing part of this storm is the areas that rarely see snow or snow this early are getting quite a bit!

My backyard thermometer said -10, I just installed a brand new Optima red top battery on Monday. That, in combination with the M1 0W-30 in my Expy now, makes starting so much easier. The starter turns over like it was the middle of summer.
 
I'm off home shortly for a swim in our pool (Christmas Eve here today). Accompanied by a few Corona's and lime of course. 32C today, nice and warm. You folks enjoy that snow.
