Well, "Officially" at National Airport here in DC they measured 16.4". I dunno why they use that stupid airport as the "official" for the area, because just about everywhere else got 20+ inches. We live about 1 mile south of the airport on the Potomac, and I measured 26" on the grass in 3 different places. They must take the measurements on some sort of "ground" thats heated and doesnt start accumulating until theres already been 3-5" of snow fallen everywhere else.

Trachy's should be fine! Pots never even came close to freezing, though the leaves did get bent down and almost totally covered, but they bounced right back up when I cleaned them off last night. Ill try and get some pics up soon. I got about 200 I took that I have to go thru! WOW!
