We are not done yet. Over here we are looking at 18" +/-  ;D so we will see in the AM.

I just checked accuweather, according to them after 12am we will only accumulate 2-4. So unless we have like 8 inches drop in  the next hour and 20 mins i dont see webster having much to deal with.

Got about 7" right now.  Sledding behind our truck going 30-35 mph and taking spills and you can't feel a thing!  Plenty of snow.

I'm in Rehoboth and I shoveled about 12-14" around 11pm, and it's still coming down.  It's been coming down since 7:30 am.  The best is supposed to be overnight!!  The wind is crazy, I've never heard it this fierce.  There were drifts almost waist high when I was out there earlier.

Yup not much here either, looks like there is a big hole in the storm sitting right over mid Mass.

Keith, is exactly right, I know for a fact that Clinton is the center of the universe and that just like Pluto...... Webster is no longer considered a town in MA. Todays science lesson is sponsored by Iceinsanity.com. 

Tony hope to get down your way to fish this winter.  Happy New Year.

I had over 20 inches at 5 am in Cheshire, MA.  Took me over an hour to snowblow.  It is now 9 am and still coming down hard.  We will have over 2 feet at the end of the day no doubt.

I went out last night at 830 and used the snow blower, and went out at 630 this morning about 12-14" Still coming down and it will need to be done again later on. My buddy went by Cheshire lake earlier and he said that the wind was blowing the snow off the ice.

Here in Westfield looks like around 9". Hard to tell with the wind drifts. Some drifts as deep as 2 feet. Normally fish in the berkshires. Sounds like this area has been hit with large amounts of snow.

I went out this morning at 4am to shovel before work... there was 0 inches on my driveway again lol. The wind made big snow drifts and that was about it. The snow coming down now is fluffier and starting to stick so were getting what looks like more snow now then we did all yesterday and this early this morning.

crapty thing is my 1 year old snow blower wouldnt start this morning. I ran the gas out of it at the end of last season and now i cant get it to start. Any suggestions?

Yes I put more gas in it lol
