We ended up with about 8" here in West Alton. It did change over for a time, but the changeover precip. here was rain rather than freezing rain.

The new snow is like wet concrete. Clearing our driveway, walks and stairs was a bear. The snow is so heavy I even decided to shovel off our roof. Our roof has a relatively low pitch and the weight of the snow, especially if we get rain tomorrow, would have been too high for comfort.
