So far we have 8" in the Lehigh Valley, PA area. This is so unbelieveable. I am so afraid we are going to lose my Kwanzi Cherry trees. Only minor on/off power outages. Put cookies in the oven and then the power decided to go out. Luckily it went back on in a few minutes and the cookies were saved! DirecTV out all day though. Trying to keep Baron occupied!

Oh man, my family is all in NY and has been telling me all about the snow! I'm so glad Kano isn't up there right now because she HATES to go to the bathroom in the snow. We got stranded in the blizzard last year and she was such a diva about it lol

I can't believe it's already snowing in October.

Good luck to everyone up there, and stay warm and be safe!

OMG snow already, stay warm

Nice pictures. I wish I would have had my camera out this afternoon. Indy had the zoomies, slipped in the snow and fell on his butt then got up and kept running.

I think it was in the 80s today. It is why we suffer through the summer.

Great pictures!
I really should stop complaining about the mid 50´s at night...;-)

I had 8 1/2 inches on my deck railing last Wednesday morning. And you do not know how rare it is to be able to measure snow that is on the level and not on the north side of some post. It was really quite beautiful. No wind, very good moisture for the ground. This country was needing a drink. And Emily loved it. I had to scoop a path for the Yorkie though, it was deeper than she is tall and she hates to pee in the snow.

I wish we had significant snow here in oregon... where I live we are lucky to get it for a day a year lol... mostly it just freezes... but last year Pistol and my old dalmation had so much fun in the 10 inches we got!!

Just a few photos from this morning. We had a total of 10". My cherry trees are OK. Snow melted off them and the branches sprang back. None broken.

Find the Doberman?

dax0402: funny, your house pretty much has the same color than mine has. Nice to see how it would look like in deep snow ;-)

Absolutely beautiful scenery and dobe! Where did you get your dobe's coat? I need to get one for Coco and Asia before we get our snow for the year. We live in Ohio so its gets pretty chilly!

Kaiser's first snow!

Edit: We haven't had power since Friday night, finally gave up and went to a hotel. We tried heading for a hotel last night, but found that there were trees blocking the road on either side of the mountain down from our house. A neighbor's house burnt down because, even if any of us had electricity or phone service to call 911 with, no emergency vehicles were able to get up to us because of the trees. So sad ): Finally got the roads cleared this afternoon and got out. Too many trees hitting the ground around our house to be safe.

Beautiful pics, & your dobe is gorgeous in the snow!

So very sad about your neighbor house. Hope you get your power back soon. This was such an awful storm for the East Coast especially following Irene and Lee! Looks like Kaiser had a good time with his first snow adventure.

Love the pics P.s: Do you ever bubble wrap/hessian wrap your cherry trees? We do it with the bays and olive trees and they always last better through heavy show when we do it

Thanks. The problem was that there are still leaves on most of the trees here and the heavy, wet snow weighed them down. If the leaves would have been off, there most likely would not have been this much of a problem. This snow storm was so not the norm in this area of the US. We get some snow in October, not often, but it usually is just an inch or so, not ten to twelve inches. Some places in New England got up to 2 feet. Freaky weather!

Give em' a good SHAKE and they wont have leaves on for long! Hehe, just kidding.

The weather looks crazy, my friends have been uploading pictures and it looks like even more then 2 feet. They're having problems with the power so hope everyone is safe and well
