Looks like my early morning commute Monday morning is going to be a little tricky...espically if we get that freezing drizzle. Sure wish it would stay all snow.

I'll be leaving the airport heading back to California, PA around 930 ish. I bet it will be a fun drive back!

Snow has just begun here and is already coating the ground and the roads. Should be an interesting day to travel. Winter Weather Adv is up until 6 AM tomorrow morning. Be careful to those traveling. This is our first "big" snowfall of the season.

[Miss Mary]

Same here Luke - Cincinnati received it's first snowfall of the season as well. About 3 inches here at my house, on the east side of Cincinnati. It's about time!

Yeah, i've been following this on Columbus webcams all day...brings back memories!

Looking a bit more like it over at last.

And as i speak, the first real cold air of the season is about to sink down over the UK...i'm not expecting anything much but i haven't seen a single flake fall yet this winter...so its looking a bit better for all of us!

[Pburgh]

Nothing here yet!!!

[Mesohunter]

2 inches so far here in WV, it's still coming down and the highs are supposed to stay below freezing, so it looks like we're in for a couple more

[tomboudreau]

Have freezing drizzle falling in Carnegie this afternoon. Received a dusting of snow before a change over to freezing rain.

[ohiostorm]

When I left my house we had an inch or so of snow. At the airport we had maybe a dusting then the rest was freezing rain. Was very fun trying to clean off my car. Here at California, PA we had a couple inches with a little freezing rain.
