WOw...you in Suffolk?

I'm guessing 12-14 by me in Nassau. Gotta go fire up the snowblower. Usually end up doing all my neighbors, so once I'm out there....3-4 hours.

Cant complain, we have power.

Yikes. Looks like CT got raped with this storm too.
Good luck and stay safe. Hope your power holds up.

Pretty average snow for us, I'd say maybe 12-14, haven't been outside yet. Need more coffee & internet first.

Definitely going to go to Key West, will likely make it an afternoon trip so we can catch a glimpse of some of the nightlife.

Awesome list, thanks so much.

If you're looking for a place to stop on the way down, check out the Tiki Bar round mm 82 or so. Fun, open air place to eat.

You don't need to go far out to catch fish down there - there are definitely half day charters. You can also do some back country fishing in the mangroves.

There are probably plenty of charters in marathon but keep an eye out for Bud and Mary's as you drive down - if it turns out that you have trouble finding a boat in Marathon, you certainly can find one there.

Just dug the boots out of coat closet. Venturing out shortly. Facking plows filled in the driveway apron.

SAR, Blue Heaven in Key West. Get there for brunch if possible.

We probably got 10" where I am in Nassaua. The plow just did my driveway and they shoveled my walk. I love snow as long as I don't have to shovel it.

Last time I went to the keys we hit up Islamorada for alternating days of flats fishing for some bonefish & tarpon, followed by going offshore for some permit & mahi mahi. Best of both worlds, can't wait to make my way back someday.

Also all this talk of Florida is just torture on a day like this.

Is there an easy way to post pics directly from my iPhone or Instagram to here?

Over 18" here and no power, cable, or internet. Running on generator and 4G LTE right now. Made it through last nights high tide. Bigger surge expected with this morning's soon. Wind still gusting over 60 mph. Lost two 100 year old oaks last night and a small chunk of lawn to the ocean. Could be much worse so we're grateful.

Very sorry to hear it. Hang in there, they're very good with power restoration in New England, you'll be back online soon.

Hope you get things back up and running quickly VinnyGronkGuido.

As for me ..

Heading off tomorrow for a long vacation that starts in Vermont for skiing then proceeds cross country to Palm Desert for golf and concludes with 18 days at sea from LA to the Big Apple via the Panama Canal.

Back in time for pre draft analysis and action.

Everybody be well ...even Pat fans

Vin, as long as you have booze, there is hope.

Good luck, muchacho. I'm heading out to snow blow about a foot of snow. Then, I gotta come in and make soup.

Just got in myself, the winds out there are a *****. Nothing like have the wind throw the snow right back in your face.

I love to freak out the neighbors with the ski mask from time to time:
