About 13 inches here. I called out of work today. But they expected my department to mostly not show up, so they cut us off from orders yesterday. So no real worry. And I got PTO, so it's a paid day off for me. 8)

We had predictions ranging up to 16” in my part of Jersey, but only got about 5”. Salted and prepped like hell at work, though.

Connecticut recovered pretty quickly, but we're almost 2 days behind on our delivery schedules for our frozen product. that's going to take weeks to recover from.

So, we got about a foot of snow last week. And now a foot+ of snow
this week.

Sure, but count yourself lucky you didn't get the 2 inches we did, it really caused us a lot of problems.

I am off today, but work is once again a mess. The central part of Connecticut from North to South is largely only seeing 4-8", but both Eastern and Western bands are getting upwards of 18". The chain whose distribution I help to manage has cancelled all deliveries for tomorrow (some barely got power back from last week) and most of the area surrounding Connecticut is closed for trucks, which means my incoming deliveries are also being negatively impacted.
My guess is, this will cost us another week to recover from and by then I just have to hope for the best.

Well, I'm staying home from work today. Still snowing out, heavily.

My swath of Connecticut is largely cleared out, though Eastern parts are ugly. I'm hearing parts of Eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire got absolutely slammed.

You wouldn't be able to land at the airport or get any transportation to get here

But for real: Northern CT was once projected to get 6-12" and where I work in central CT was projected similar. I had less than 1/2" on my lawn, nothing on my driveway. Work had slightly more, but again nothing on the pavement. The only annoying part was the truck traffic from NY/NJ was completely shut down, so we will end up with a backlog of trucks delivering produce a day late, which will be incredibly annoying over the next 3 days, going into one of our busiest weeks of the year.
