Among members of our extended family, Hugh and Dolores probably saw the most snow. They were at Deep Creek Lake in western Maryland; the National Weather Service reported two feet fell at nearby McHenry.
A bit farther west, Cathy says about a foot of snow fell in her neighborhood in Ohio. Here are some photos she sent Saturday morning. (Double-click to go to the Picasa album and see larger images.) UPDATE: More photos added 2/9
"We made a snowman today," Cathy writes. Did the snow cause her any problems? "No real troubles but the kids were sad that the library is closed."
Return trip delayed
The storm changed Marie and Xander's plan to return to Hamilton, NJ, on Saturday. Their flight to Philadelphia was canceled, so their winter visit to California has been extended for another week. Philadelphia airport recorded a whopping 28.5 inches of snow, making this the city's second-greatest snowstorm.

The snow continued through most of Saturday. "Fifteen inches of snow in Hamilton as of 3 P.M., according to AP," Barbara writes. "It seems like a lot more. I guess it must be drifting. Tomorrow we dig out!"Elsewhere - What storm?
Just an hour's drive northeast from Hamilton, the blizzard barely touched us here in Fanwood.
At left is the view out our back window this morning.Andy took our official measurement on the backyard table - a mere 2 1/2 inches.
Up in Yonkers, Shanna says she's "wondering where all that snow is, because it's definitely not at my house!"
