Weather report looks like this.......It's actually a "SEVERE WEATHER WARNING" they issued us.

LOOK FOR SNOW TO BECOME STEADIER AND HEAVIER TODAY...AS NORTH
WINDS INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON. THE SNOW WILL BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES
TONIGHT...AND WINDS WILL GUST TO 40 MPH AT TIMES. THE COMBINATION
MAY RESULT IN NEAR BLIZZARD CONDITIONS LATER THIS EVENING AND
DURING THE OVERNIGHT.

THE SNOW WILL BECOME LIGHTER SUNDAY AS LOW PRESSURE DROPS SOUTH OF
THE REGION. BY THAT TIME...NEW SNOWFALL AMOUNTS FOR TODAY...TONIGHT
AND SUNDAY WILL RANGE FROM 8 TO 16 INCHES...WITH THE HIGHEST
AMOUNTS ACROSS CENTRAL MAINE. BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WILL
CONTINUE SUNDAY AS WINDS GUST TO 40 MPH.

A WINTER STORM WARNING FOR HEAVY SNOW MEANS SEVERE WINTER WEATHER
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF SNOW
ARE FORECAST THAT WILL MAKE TRAVEL DANGEROUS. ONLY TRAVEL IN AN
EMERGENCY. IF YOU MUST TRAVEL...KEEP AN EXTRA
FLASHLIGHT...FOOD...AND WATER IN YOUR VEHICLE IN CASE OF AN
EMERGENCY.

I live in Central Maine.....lucky me!
This was yesterday, day #1.
