Who else is getting hit by the Nor Easter snow?
We have a foot just about and it's still coming down isn't suppose to stop til tomorrow morning.
Just a few pictures of this mess around my house.
Stairs going up to our porch.

A shot of the Escort, it kind of looks like a station wagon in this picture. As you can see the Mystique is covered up in the carport buried in.

that huge snow storm just barely inched by ann arbor, we hardly got an inch :D
 
Dang we're getting a little dust down here, I think it's the same system ya'll are getting. I'd take snow over this damn wind anyday! :(
 
I want snow!
We've only gotten some small storms so far, nothing more than 6 in. :(
They were talking of snow for today but all we are getting is rain.

At least Buddy is getting to have some fun. :cool:

So glad that didn't hit MI. We've had enough, or I have.

I'll second that! Fort Wayne was actually just about out of salt, before the last snow storm hit. This is by far the most snow we've had in a long time. When I heard we were supposed to get another 10"-11"... :mad: The next morning, the winter storm warning had been lifted... :cool:

its been raining for three straight days here it should start flooding any minute now...but i'll take that over snow
 
pretty crazy up this way too, I havent snapped any pics but we have about a foot. We got let out of work about 2 hours early Friday. My usual route was closed due to a wrecked semi on the highway. Just got stuck in the gf's apt. complex 2 guys had to push me out. I must say though I liked the SVT in the snow A LOT better than this little 97 civic!!
 
Theres about a 4-5ft drift on the side of our house between the boat and the DeSoto we are restoring. It hasn't let up at all. There was a guy across the street a few houses down that had a pile up to his shoulders the length of his driveway. Maybe I'll snap some pics later. So much for "spring" break.
 
This was my car during last week's snow storm, on 2/26:

It's finally stopped snowing here for the most part....I sure hope it's the end!!!
 
We have been getting dumped on since yesterday A.M. It's about 4:45 P.M. here now, with no end in sight. I worked midnights last night. My Sgt. told us to park cruisers and just respond to dispatched calls from our district. Our Crown Vics are like go-carts in this stuff.Street crews are trying, but can't keep up with the snowfall. I spent part of my shift blocking I-75 near downtown Dayton, due to semi sliding sideways across all 4 lanes!! I hope this is the last one, gotta go in tonight and do it again.

We have well over a foot of snow in western Columbus right now. Haven't left the house all day, except to shovel of the back porch, so the dogs can get outside.

The cougar's in the garage with no transmission right now, so ... that's good, I guess...
 
wow! I didn't realize there was a huge snowstorm going on. We've had solid rain for the past day. I'm at my parents' house right now --- the ceiling sprung a leak while we were eating dinner (the first leak in years) so that made for some entertainment before dessert. Definitely going to have some flooding on the streams/rivers here.
