There was a large snowfall forecast and it happened. Or is still happening. When I last looked there was no snow falling, but radar shows more on the way. What I measured outside was at least 9 inches of fresh snow so far. It's heavy wet snow, too.
Schools were closed today. Trash pickup was canceled and moved to Friday, at least if Friday isn't too bad. All roads out of town are closed. This noon the mail carrier did not deliver to the folks down by the lake because, "If I go down that hill, I won't get back up." Roads are not expected to be open until at least 9 AM tomorrow.
A winter storm warning is in effect until midnight tonight, but a blizzard warning is in effect until 6 PM Friday. Friday's forecast doesn't have as much snow in it, but it does call for wind.
