From Hudson Wisconsin, we are inthe twin cities metro area. Started last night at around midnight as a winter storm warning. They have extended it and it could easily be a blizzard later to night. Snow is suppose to let up a little and winds are suppose to pick up a lot. Suppose to get really cold. Started snowing lightly at 9:30pm last night and as of noon today we are at 8 inches and we no where near done yet. Currently still getting almost an inch a hour. Its trying to drift here, which is impressive since we are in the wood and pretty sheltered. I have to start shoveling soon. Walked around in it for a little bit. Snow plow did actually come by at noon today, which is alot earlier then I was expecting it too, but in a few more hours it won't make a big difference.

Deck is lying, you can see the wind effect though. So much for my path.

My road shortly after snow plow went by. It is a actually paved road. Dead end though, so low priority. Plows can't remove packed on snow from vehicles driving on it before it is plowed. You can't see the pavement most of the winter.

Won't be reading that newspaper, or the other one that met the same fate 5 minuets later.

This was last weeks snow. Exactly last Saturday. Was a great storm. About half a foot little wind so we get the awesome "winter wonderland" thing going. I love snow when it stick to the trees.

Well only been about two hours and over a foot now. I had to start shoveling stuff, which is already buried again. We have the snow blower, but we also have 2 paved driveways a pretty long sidewalk and 3 different flights of stairs(crap load of landscaping). Two of the stairs are important and have to be cleared, one is a stairwell with walls on both sides and was no fun at all to shovel. This is the easier one. Will defiantly have to shovel at least twice today.

My car I'm going to see if it can actually get totally buried. Not touching it till this thing is over. I've really needed tires too for the last month. Those are worn out all season tires. Haven't gotten around to it yet. Kinda don't have the $500+ either I need for new tires. Bought some "new" used rims off craigslist months ago and was going to repaint them before using them, but IDK if I have that option. I would need to heat the garage now which takes time and gas which is expensive. I was hoping to make it through this season on these wheels. Hindsight sucks
