topic says it all. this is where i live :P
We got about half an inch so far.
Never snows where I live. Never.
What was it like? I usually like heavy rain, as long as I'm inside and there's no damage. I would imagine I would love snow.
well a foot of snow is nice but with this much you cant get out of your drive way and some people cant get out of their house since their door is covered.
6 inches or so, so far here in Vermont.
Suppose to get up to 4 an hour this afternoon.
Not sure exactly how much we got here in Toronto but all the public schools closed for the day because of it.
They said St. Louis would get 1-2ft before it started. We ended up getting an inch or so of ice and then another 4 or so inches of snow on top of the ice.
Looks like it pushed more north before getting here. :)

That's why you plow and shovel while its snowing so you can get out of your house :P
Some crazy storm I hear though, we only got a few inches from it. Idk, just seems like a typical blizzard to me, although I know it's not normal for the southerly states..
No snow here! ;D
Thank God too, around the greater DC Metro area, with all the traffic, they seemingly have to re-invent the snow plow every winter, and then once they do, they can't use them because everyone gets stuck on the roads, blocking the plows from getting through.
We had around a foot and a half around here near Chicago. I'm a bit south-west, but we still managed to have a lot. The drift against our house and different areas was probably around 3 feet.
This is a penis length comparison thread, right?
Oh, no? My bad, I'll just leave then...
I wish it snowed here... !@#$ you all...
No you don't Luci. Snow is terrible. Only american's "wish they had snow" because they don't live in Canada and understand what it's like. It's not cool waking up an hour early to shovel/plow your laneway just to get your car out of your laneway, except your car's freezing cold, and your cold, and your boots are soaked, and it's hard as hell to see outside. Oh what's that, it's real stormy? roads are closed? Can't go to work? Shame, there goes the money you were going to spend on X.

Bro, I live in Vermont, we get a crapload of snow, and most of the time I love it.
Seriously, epic sledding at midnight on a ski club hill thats riduclously steep.
Yes please!
Car not starting and have to go to school in the morning.
No thanks.
Never seen snow ever. And don't want too. I like warm weather.

It builds character...
... Apparently...
or at least builds muscle shoveling the snow :P
Here in Maryland we got 2 in of ice 3-4 inches of snow. We've been getting a lot of freezing rain lately so most of the snow has just missed us a few times. I for one love the snow because me and my dad go out and make money plowing, I make $20 per hour doing so. At the same time I hate it because my clothes/feet get soaked and as said before getting your car out in it is a pain in the ass.
Last year we got 2 huge blizzards, one was like 3 feet the other 2 i think. So yea it's not nearly as bad this year, by far.
Also also, I currently have a construction job which requires working outside, so it keep me from working a few days, which sucks.

Lol whaaaaaaat.
Not all Americans bro.
We've had over 60 inches of snow this winter.
I do agree that shoveling is not fun. And it's not fun getting in a freezing cold car in the morning. And driving during blizzards is not fun, because of course they don't close anything for a foot of snow here.

He should have said Southern Californians.
