We were able to measure the snow with a 12 inch ruler at first (picture shows 7 inches at the time, taken around noon Thursday)
The snow was very high up against our sliding glass door on our patio, making our house cold.
14 inches of snow almost fell in the house when we opened our sliding door.
The sun is coming out right now (taken 10am Friday), but this is the snow that is left over from yesterday's blizzard.
You can't see this during the storm, but we usually have 3 steps going up to our front door and a side-walk right infront of that.
Lots of snow!
This was taken at 7 pm last night, and it snowed well past midnight. Needless to say, cars were burried and stuck this morning.

We ended this blizzard with 15 inches of snow on our patio (the foot ruler wasn't big enough anymore). The news says we could have had more snow fall, but 15 inches is what stuck and didn't blow away in the wind. Like I said, it is sunny now, but the roads are icey so we are "snowed in" for one more day off work. We have classes and birthday parties this weekend we are planning on running. However, we are excepting more snow on Monday so we will see how that turns out. For today, though, we are taking is slow, relxing, and will probably go play in over a foot of snow later on. Enjoy your weather!!
