From the local news website:
How much snow is at your house WB?

Well, I don't know about WB's situation, but I know that in Ogden, our snowpack's at 120% of the norm. At the beginning of the year when I first moved out, Ogden was at 70% of the norm, so I'm figuring that's about half the normal snowfall of an entire season that took place in a month... yeesh! Some of our resorts have seen snowfall totaling at 400+ inches, with the current base at the closest resort at 137 inches. It's been pretty bad, and apparently the other day, some poor woman in my town had her carport come crashing down on her, killing her. It was her and her daughter living there, and no one thought to clear off the snow, since it normally doesn't snow that much here.
This weekend appears to be an improvement. It's supposed to be a high of around 43 (I'll believe it when I see it) on Saturday, with Friday and Sunday seeing temps in the upper 30s to 40. I'm hoping that some of it will melt away, so that I don't have to drive over Mount Ice Hump to get into my parking space.
