We got lucky. Only about 6" of the white stuff and very light winds last night. It's windier now, but this is the kind of snow day we can enjoy.
Oh my! The pictures are beautiful, but having to suffer through it would be difficult! Hope you all are doing ok!Checking in from near Rochester, NY. The storm is over for us. I pity those people along the coast into Maine.

I have to, at some point, go out and clear off the truck and shovel. But I spent yesterday clearing off the truck, shoveling, and knocking the snow off of the canopy over the porch so the metal poles wouldn't collapse beneath the snow's weight. I managed to knock the snow (most of it though not all of it) off the canopy this morning and I haven't had the energy to go out and shovel. It may have to wait until tomorrow. I hear a cup of tea and a novel calling my name....
We are eating snow ice cream! Haven't done this since I was a kid! It was Annie's idea. She used vanilla, snow, milk and sugar. I tried to tell her the yellow snow had a delightful lemon flavor but she wasn't having any of it! --s6

My friend lives in Great Bend. I spoke with her this morning, she didn't say how many inches, but that no more was expected today or tomorrow. She is planning on picking her Mom up in Pawnee Rock tomorrow morning and going to Ellsworth (?) for an aunt's 90th birthday. Since they won't leave till around 11, she thinks the roads should be OK by then.
