We're looking at up to 18 inches here in metro D.C. Anyone else on the East Coast looking for bunches of snow? Bet the kids are wishing it'd happened on Sunday/Monday instead of Saturday.

Had nothing but a very cold rain and a few spits of sleet today. Being so close to the coast and east of the I-95 corridor we didn't get the full force of the storm.

Ditto on the cold rain in Tennessee. My sister in Richmond, VA is snowed in, though.

You must be kidding. That was merely the first snow a couple weeks ago here. It's not even touching the roof of that tiny shed. That's just "accumulation".

That's for sure.... Here in Vermont, that's a "heavy dusting"
All kidding aside, that much snow in a place that doesn't have the resources to deal with it is a huge problem. Around here, the crews would have the roads clear in a few hours. Might be days down south.

It snowed a bit when I was out in S.Dakota,back in mid October. 2-3 inches maybe, but it was an early snow for them, regardless. But that didn't keep them from putting the snow plows and salt trucks to use. They kept those streets nearly free of snow and ice. I've never seen so many snow plows, and it wasn't exactly a heavily populated area. THOSE folks know how to deal w/ snow!
In Atlanta, I've seen 6-8 inch snow falls maybe once in my 40+ years here. The latest big one was back in '93. In March.

While this much snow is a rarity in Virginia, it is minor compared to winters I've experienced in Minnesota and New Hampshire.
