The Weather Channel has a forecast map here:

Looks like you and I won't get much of anything. West is a different story.

I think my poor mom might be getting 4-5" of snow on her birthday

Yes. I have received a few "Winter Storm Watch" messages on my phone. We are expecting 6+ inches, even along the coast. I guess it is supposed to be wet and heavy snow, and with leaves still on the trees there is likely to be power outages.

"......THIS IS AN IMPACT-DRIVEN WATCH GIVEN THAT THIS IS THE FIRST STORM
OF THE SEASON...AND A VERY EARLY ONE AT THAT. WHILE 6 OR MORE
INCHES OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE IN PORTIONS OF THE WATCH AREA...EVEN
JUST 2 TO 4 INCHES OF HEAVY WET SNOW WILL LEAD TO DOWNED BRANCHES
OR TREES SINCE LEAVES ARE STILL ON MANY TREES. THIS COULD RESULT
IN NUMEROUS POWER OUTAGES...... "

The 1 to 3 inches Wustah was supposed to get last night turned out to be no more than a dusting of wet, white stuff. Some of the hills in the towns got some snow but no more than an inch. And so I say pllllth to a forecast of 6 inches.

We didn't really get anything to stick last night, but we actually had thundersnow. I think thundersnow in October is one of the signs of the apocalypse.

if this storm has something to say about this upcoming winter for our region then it's going to be a stormy and cold season ahead especially with La Nina returning.

Rain.
Not enough wind to go to the beach and check out the waves.
Nothing to see here, move along.

It doesn't snow on Cape Cod.

I do remember snow on Halloween when I was Very, Very Young.

Edit:
I haven't bitched about leaves yet.
Consider it done.

Last measurable snowfall in Portland was 1898. lol Some records are just not meant to be broken! I saw quite a few trucks ziping around trying to get plows where they should be. I think a lot have been caught off guard, especially when this storm was suppose to be out to sea all week long.

My mom says it's already "snowing like crazy" where she lives in New York. Her birthday party might be getting canceled

Tuned up and fired up the snow-blower this morning. If I use it tomorrow it will be the first time I used the snow-blower before the leaf-blower. OUCH!!

White stuff falling from above has begun.

Just started pouring rain here with heavy wind. Chilly, but doesn't seem near cold enough to snow...

No snow here, yet. It is very likely to start as rain when when anything starts.
I really am not expecting the "epic" snow they say we are going to get. I am more worried about the heavy 50mph wind forecasted.

Edited (Someone tell Apple to do something about their "spellcheck!")

Time warner died first now power is gone. Not impressed! How long until spring!?

It's been snowing for about 6 hours and there's maybe an inch of slush on the ground... Weather Underground seems to think we'll be getting 6-10 inches, Weather Channel says more like 2-3. NOAA says 5-9. Boston.com is entirely non-functional (power outages somewhere?).

All in all I'd say the forecasters have had no idea what the hell was going on through most of this...
