Just has a 60mph gust, that'll clean out the squirrel nests.
Does anybody have snow? Was getting a mix here at midnight with only about 1/4 inch of snow on the ground. Changed over to rain during the night and we didn't get any snow. 41 degrees here now, looks like we got quite a bit of rain based on the size of the puddles in the yard.
Just slush, 1/2 " max, driveway and street clear and not slippery, temp 35. Nacle
Western Camden County - About one inch of snow, raining steadily, ice covered branches and surfaces.
"Today's going to be the kind of day where for some meteorologists, having a dog would be a good thing. Or whatever the equivalent. One of those pieces of advice is if you want to feel better about a bad forecast, own a dog. Unconditional love solves a lot of problems." - Gary Szatkowski, Meteorologist 
On CNN yesterday afternoon they were proclaiming that a blizzard was going to affect 100 million Americans, and things were going to be horrible in New York. They said to expect a minimum of 11 inches of snow in NYC, but new data had just come in to suggest it would probably be closer to 23 inches.
The current forecast says 4 to 6 inches in NYC.

The difference a few degrees can make! I read on the National Weather Service page that yesterday was the 24th anniversary of the 1993 blizzard. Now that was a snowstorm! Frankly I am very disappointed today but thankful that at least a few inches of rain are falling in our area.
They said the same thing in January 2015; it was a Monday/Tuesday storm as well. Boston and New England got clobbered.
I actually find it refreshing that Nature is still able to surprise us in spite of all our technology. And I am quite happy to only see some puddles in the driveway instead of 10 inches of snow. Now if I drank a lot of beer last night and planned to spend the day at home, and was awakened by a call from the boss asking why I wasn't at work…. I'd be pi$$ed at the weather man. 
I was in the big box home store a week ago, all the snow blowers had sales prices on them, This past Saturday they were lined up without the sales prices. On Monday I checked online and they were out of stock. If I had bought one, I'd be pi$$ed at the weatherman
