Just got up.  Eyeballing about 8" with  SN++ at the moment.  Double digits look doable, maybe even a foot based on what last night's models were showing for the morning hours.  

First, coffee.

I'm 8 miles east of Brunswick in the middle of the GYX radar hole, ftw.

By the way--I think until perhaps just now, that has been heavy, wet snow.  Temp was hovering right around freezing  through the duration until about an hour ago.  Cooler air filtering in now.

And so it is.    It is just dumping.
