I figured since this storm is cranking up and my store closed before I could go in I have some spare time and I would share. I will keep my original post updated through the next 24 hours with pictures. If anyone else is encountering this same storm whether it be t-storms, ice storms or the blizzard, feel free to share here. Not looking for C&C here.
The peek is to hit at 3 to 4 pm today cst.
This was taken around 9am this morning.

This shot was taken at around 11am.

Taken at 1230pm, snowfall at 1-2 inches per hour, worst to come.

The actual blizzard conditions are to start around 4 cst. So far doesn't seem any worst than the earlier storms this month. We are still projected to get 10-13 inches. Taken at 2pm.

Sorry Ron, haven't worked with snow before.
The winds are in the 40 to 50mph range now, drifting is extreme and my wife and I are now locked into our area. The only way out is that road in the picture then up a steep hill. The snow plows won't reach us until tomorrow afternoon because they can't keep pace with the current snowfall on the major hiways. Taken at 4pm.

6pm, Starting to taper to moderate. Only at 10 inches so far but we had ice yesterday.

She's going to be a big one! So the weather people are saying.
 
We've got way more here in NY already! And this is just the prelude. Tonight the second one comes and its supposed to DUMP!
 
I'm at work in eastern Pa. We had a lot of freezing rain early but now we are above freezing for a little while. I would really like to get some ice pictures later tonight when the storm is supposed to get worse.
 
Looks like here in Minnesota, we actually got lucky! (If you'd call it that..)
 
Some shots from Maine. We're supposed to be getting a foot and a half more tomorrow.

So tomorrow we will all be off work and on here even more then usually are? lol
 
I just heard that this storm is affecting 33 states so the odds are pretty good that someone on this forum is dealing with the lovely weather.
 
More snow today on the South Shore of Massachusetts

It's -5F in Denver right now. The sky is blue and we only took on about 2" of pixie dust. You guys in the midwest and N.E. are gonna get clobbered. Have fun!

Not from this storm, but we've been getting hammered in the mountains this season, with very little in the city:
