NJDuck, (Joe) lives in the epic-center of the storm (New Jersey) and has had over 22 inches of snow thus far, with 26-30 inches to accumulate before it is over. Whew!

How bad is it where YOU live? (Eugene is sunny and crisp today with no storm impact)

No.

Im enjoying not shoveling snow 12 miles from Autzen Stadium

No.

I’m living 2 Weeks in Cabo! 75 for a high and 69 for a low. All inclusive by the ocean watching NFL playoffs in a warm lively Sports bar in the resort. Feel for me….

No.

I live in the beautiful sunny tropical of Tualatin Or. I did live in DC for several years and I know what its like to shovel 18 inches of snow.

38 degrees, heavy rain in SW South Carolina.

My Bro in Boston reports two plus feet of snow on the ground with heavy snow expected for the next 20 hours.

But Pats fans are happy. Pats 10 - Broncos 7 - Super Bowl next. The Patriots are 9-0 on the road this season. I would have been conflicted if Bo had been able to go but ...

In heavy snow in Denver, OBD and Pats DB, Christian Gonzo Gonzales makes a late in the 4th Q pick to help seal the deal for the Pats.

Everyone, please stay safe and warm.

No.

Tough watching the Broncos today without Bo, Forsyth and Troy Franklin. Imagine if they could have played and won today to go to the Super Bowl!!

Read today that Bo's prognosis is 12 week recovery. We'll see.

Current temp for me is 46 degrees, no snow, but have been checking web cams for locations of friends from Kentucky on the south to upper NY. Conditions for ice making their lives miserable.

No.

Chilly, but no rain or snow here in SW Eugene.

No.

Glad I'm not in Tennessee with my Granddaughters, right now.

They're hunkered down around the fire!

No.

Pretty mild winter in Eugene so far. This was an hour or so ago, out by Fern Ditch. 💚💛

I'm in San Diego and usually this time of year it gets cold and wet enough a few times for there to be snow up at 4k ft and above, but nothing this year.

We aren't immune to some really rainy storms, but that tends to happen when it's El Nino. With La Nina it's been very dry, and I think this storm system just looped above southern California.

Bo Nix is out 12 weeks for a broken ankle? That doesn't sound good. I always remember people saying it's usually better to break an ankle than sprain it as a break is usual 6-8 weeks. Bo Broke his ankle once in college and once in high school. Sean Payton said he wouldn't have drafted him if he knew about the ankle issue, and nobody was sure if he was joking or serious.

In NC with sleet and freezing rain. My cars look like glazed Krispy Kreme donuts out in the driveway.

No.

Portland, OR is fine... But we can tell there is a big winter storm because the gorge winds from the east are cold which means the continental weather systems are COLD.

But I'm happy to not be in the massive winter onslaught.

No.

Balmy and zero snow (essentially all year so far) in Salt Lake. So much for my $1,000 ski pass. I wish the storm would hit us.

That is the worst…you can’t walk outside without slipping, and my back hurts just thinking about it!

Seattle's not bad, sunny during the day but it freezes at night so I have to salt my driveway and doorsteps every couple days.

No.

It's going to be a little bit chilly for us today -- about 71° for a high.

It's actually a frigid 37° this morning, but with the wind chill, it's down all the way to 35°.

No.

Mid-morning temperatures are right around 48 degrees way down here in South Georgia. We are going to have a low tonight neighboring somewhere around 22 degrees! That’s getting pretty cold for this neck of the woods! No snow in the forecast though, snow is very rare this far south. Although we surprisingly had a few days last winter that dropped about 10” on us and it stayed cold enough for it to build up and stay awhile. You wouldn’t believe the chaos that it caused for people down here.😂 Folks down here just don’t know a thing about dealing with snow. Seriously, just driving around at that time was quite the challenge for many of my neighbors!😂

I’m not minding it so much, I sometimes miss the cold weather. I lived and worked in Canada for years so cold weather is something that I’m very familiar with. I even miss the snow sometimes, except for the shoveling and cleaning it off of my truck every morning.

What I don’t miss is the ice! I had no idea all of the troubles that an ice storm can bring with it, heck I’d never even much heard of an ice storm. I was educated during my first winter in Canada! Luckily I moved up there in the Spring and had made some friends before that first winter. My new friends took me under their wing that first winter, otherwise I would not have been prepared or known at all what to expect. It was one of those things that literally goes along with the saying “you just don’t know what you don’t know”.
