Wow!

Eight new inches on the ground as of 9 PM. Thirty-plus MPH winds with 60 MPH plus gusts. Lightning and thunder. The snow is flying in a circle around the cul-de-sac, which made life interesting for the city snowplow that was trying to clear it earlier.

We'll see how things look by morning.

We're getting it right now, too. They just said there was 11 inches in Benton Harbor. They also just said some in our area heard thunder.

I heard a weather guy say years ago that when there's thunder and lightning you get more precipation, whether rain or snow. First time I ever had T&L in a snowstorm, back in the 80s it freaked me out.

Aren't you glad you work from home?

Your snow even made the news over here this morning. I hope it works out less severe than the predictions I've been hearing. Good luck...

Hey Bill,
The same storm hit is about 3 am this morning and we got heavy winds as well but a lot less snow than was predicted.

We got about 30 cm (2.54 cm = 1")overnight and expect another 5 cm today. Some the drifts were knee-deep when I shoveled this morning.

That's a lot of snow. We're under a snow emergency because of snow and wind - they can't keep the roads clear.

I'm not liking to news reports this morning. I hope you didn't lose power and everyone is alright over there.
