We'll get through no problem. This storm could not come at a better time, a saturday night with the playoffs the next day on TV. Not many guys are going to even get off the couch today much less drive anywhere. You understand now what real snow is.
When I used to live in NM I recall Taos as having over a 100 inch base in May!!! We also published pictures from Wyoming one year where they had like 20+ feet of snow. The snow "plow" was actually a gigantic snow blower that threw the snow over the steep banks on the side of the road. They were almost verticle and twice the height of this huge truck.

I just woke up a half hour ago and words cannot describe what is out there right now! Total whiteout! The internet was down and just came up. I would say that there is more than two feet out there and the snow is still coming down heavily. We must have had some mega-snow bands overnight! My mailbox (which sits four feet off the ground) is at least 3/4 covered. My street isn't plowed - I guess the plows can't keep up at this point. Nobody is going anywhere today.
