Same here. Was out to eat this morning and did not see one flake.

Your yard looks deeper than mine but on my wife's car there was 4 inches. The ground here may have been slightly warmer as it did take a little while for it to start accumulating.

Similar amount here with the heavier, big flakes falling after 7pm. A lot evap'd overnight with the liquid melt I put down on the paved areas. Good stuff.

Just watching it come down last night, I'd guess that maybe 5 or 6 inches fell here. But you wouldn't know that this morning, it has settled in to perhaps 3".

Almost nothing on bare ground... certainly no need for a snowblower! :)

It was 31 when I left the house this morning and 5 miles away it was 27. Just arrived home and it is back to 31. Feels nice out today.

It was nice in the woods today. Spent a few hours searching but came up empty.
