How's the snow in your area?
 
I KNOW the midwest got hit hard (especially Milwaukee and Chicago) so I was wondering how bad you guys got snowed it around your area. Pictures would be awesome too.

I got snowed in all the way up to the trunk and it goes around the entire car. It took me about 9am this morning til 11am to get it out and into the garage so I can start throwing snow where the car was. The crazy part was the neighbors across the alley from me didn't get snowed in that bad so I got all the snow drifts right into my backyard. And the snow was 4ft high too, WTF!

11.4" in the state capital.

Drifts to 4ft. Not as much as the pics I've seen from Chicago covering cars!

the heated drives going in and out of my underground garage had about 12"...it was even higher in drift areas on our side street. our plow company was stuck in another town so the people in my building shoveled out the garage arear...good thing i slept through that lol.

i was driving around in the storm at about 7pm yesterday, and the evo was amazing with the blizzacks. i drove by a few fields and it was a total white out. kinda scary, i never drove through a complete white out before.

this was in naperville.

We got 14+ inches in Rockford. I tried to get my wife to go out cruising in her Murano last night but she was too chicken and she hates the way I drive :lol::lol:. I had a nice 3-4 ft tall drift running the length of my driveway when it was all said and done. Took me about 2 hours to snowblow through it all. I'll post pics when I get home tonight.
