Have you guys seen what is going on up in Alaska right now? They are absolutely getting buried (and no, that's not normal)

About 150 miles to the southeast, the Prince William Sound community of Cordova, which has already been buried under 172 inches of snow since November, could get another 7 inches today.

The USCGC Healy is a 420-foot icebreaker and the namesake of the Healy class of cutters. Relatively new by CG standards (about 15 years old), it can definitely break some ice.

4-6 inches tonight!

Hopefully that can finally satisfy the women of western PA.

What a downer, I don't even have to shovel!

What a downer, I don't even have to shovel!

What a terrible showing by nature.

[newarenanow]

Only had a dusting. Can't say I'm disappointed because that is what I expected.

it's coming down pretty hard in Fayettenam with lots of wind. Was supposed to drive back home tonight to pick up stuff, not sure if that's gonna happen.

kdka is reporting that there will be ice pellets tonight into tomorrow morning.



actually, i'll take driving in a foot of snow over 1/4 inch of ice any day.

[mac5155]

I hate these 2-3 inches snows. because it makes driving worse than in 6-8-10 inches. When it snows that much the idiots stay off the roads. when its only 1-3 the idiots try and go out.

2-3 inches of snow is way easier to shovel bro.

Bring it on baby. If anyone happens to see someone in full camo on a camo Yamaha Grizzly, just wave. I'll be bar hopping tonight

Yes, snow snow snow.

The ice is the only thing that scares me in forecasts like these. I love the snow, but it's not so much fun when the power goes out

Knock on wood I haven't lost power to ice except maybe once(and that was a few years ago from what I remember).

[newarenanow]

Love snow. Hate ice.

[skullman80]

For some reason the plow only plowed half my street today.. leaving my end untouched.. wtf?

[mac5155]

Girlfriend said roads were very icy on her way to work this morning. They weren't when I left at noon .

[ExPatriatePen]

First snow on the ground up here on LI since Halloween.

We got 2-3 inches.

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

Got 2-3 inches of snow here. Also got a coating of ice.
