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.

Yes to the mega-bands. I've been awake since 4AM and have been watching them. It actually stopped for a while, but we're in the middle of it right now. Just shoveled the stoop of the condo and could not see where I start my jog, and it's only .1 mile away. Depth on the walk was at least 16 inches, more likely 18.
Also the plow driver for our condo seems to have given up for now. He had been at it most of the night.

Light snow here. About 5-7" accumulation overnight. Street is plowed. Snow still coming down light, windy, and cold (5 degrees F). Mighty dangerous out there. (Windham - just north of Portland, Maine)
