Everybody in the Northeast stay safe tonight. Central PA sure is fun in the snow.

Hello, Here in Bergen County, NJ (2 miles west of Giants Stadium) we're experiencing VERY light snow. It keeps on stopping. I can't see where we'll get anywhere near the 12" to 18"(or more) which are being predicted. As I always say to complainers in Winter; "You want a glass of water in the Summer? You better have some snow in the Winter."

We've already got ~2 feet here in Virginia, and it's still coming down. I grew up down South - I'm not used to seeing this much snow on the ground

10-15 expected in RI. My V70 is amazing in the snow!

Check your coolant, check your oil level, and most of all, check your remaining tire depth. Getting stuck in the snow sucks!Oh yeah, take some pics of your snow buried bricks and post them here!

Just got up here in North Central CT. figuring we would be buried in snow prediction 8-12 inch actual so far is a mere 3 inch.I need a job like the forcasters so I really don't have to know anything and get paid for telling people wrong info.I bet I could be good at it with practice.

Completely missed me in the Nashua area.

Since I won't be plowing out, maybe the air box mod today!

Here in Sturbridge, MA we only got about 5-6 inches. It looks like my office in Foxboro got 15 inches or so and I have friends that got nearly 2 feet closer to the shore. This storm was hard to forecast since there was a narrow band that got the 1 foot+ and it was hard to guess where that line would be.

This was my first snow with the new '99 v70XC (bought it Wednesday). The car performed magnificent. It's exactly what I was looking for in a winter-worthy vehicle.
