Ever thought you would see this much snow?

Since I was a kid I always imagined how cool it would be to get a few feet of snow around our house. Last week we set a 24 hour snow record of somewhere close to 20", and have gotten at least another foot since. I never thought I would see this much snow in Spokane. How much has it snowed where you live?

Glad I don't have to plow that much. I'd be up for days... Less than a foot here. And I've already plowed more than I've slept the past few days...

two and a half feet and it hasn't stopped snowing for two days. I've got some major cabin fever. People in the city are freaking out over their ten inches. psh. Almost everyone else I know in the area doesn't have power either, that's what I get for living next to a mountain I love so dear.

Got about 3" yesterday, about 6" today. Pretty average for northern Utah (not quite in the mountains, just on the benches). Last year was insane.

There is about 3 feet here, with another foot by Christmas Day.
It is also -29.
