About 4 inches on MDI.

LOL......you might want to take a look at the weather map.

It's nuts. Was mid 60s in NJ. Hit 59° here. We actually had a squall line form and Thunderstorms in spots..


And don't look now ... It's snowing in West Virginia and Maryland.




Don't worry guys... Changes coming after today. These warm days aren't lasting as long as they did last month or in November

I bet this is one of those years that Virginia/Wva/MD gets a huge snow storm- one like the last one some years back that dumped 34" of snow in a single BANG !
Doesn't happen often but when a big one hits- it hits! And, unlike in Maine where they know how to manage snow, storms like that bring the whole massive area to a halt for several days to a week .

Winds out there are horrible and adding since the ground is frozen, the rain water has no where to go.
I am watching US 1 flood all over the place.
