Kentucky Snow Measurements -- How Much Did Your Area Get?

While it may be miniscule to some (Like the Alaskan's or Montana'ians), we're right at 1 foot over the last 24-hours. How much do you guys have?

Officially we had 5" here in Lexington, however I would say it varies quite a bit around town as I have already shoveled 5 driveways and each one different in depth, also quite a bit of drifting 2 feet in some places.

BTW if you do a lot of donuts you can pack your rims completely full of snow giving it the white on chrome look, very cool but very out of balance until it all melts off.

It's finally stopped here... sun is out, in fact.

Hard to get a good measurement near my house due to all of the drifting but, I'm going to say that we had 13". Drifts were to nearly 3 feet in some very isolated areas.

I have a company (rental) Toyota Highlander. It saw a little bit of action earlier on... muhahahahaha. I love rentals.

In Frankfort we had 10 inches on the picnic table but only 6 inches stayed on the ground due to melting from the ground being above freezing. If we hadn't gotten the sleet we would have had about a foot or so.
