We 13.5 feet last year at our place in Summers Co. WV.  In Elkview now - 
barely a foot.  This is the life.  Friends in Hinton say they got hit 
pretty good, maybe 4' the night before last.  At that rate, they will be 
well past 13 feet by spring.  That side of the Appalachians gets it way 
harder than this side (west).  Weather-wise, I like the Charleston area 
more than down south, that is for sure.
