Columbia residents share their snowstorm experiences on social media

Here's a look at what Columbia residents had to say about traffic, road conditions, and snow depth measurements throughout today's snowstorm.

  1. The Missourian collected a selection of photos from Twitter showing snow depth measurements around the city. You can view the album here on Flickr. If you have a measurement of your own, tweet it to @CoMissourian with the hashtag #CoMoSnow.

    When firefighters have to WALK to get to an emergency scene, it's safe to say folks should stay inside. #CoMoSnow #winterstormQ
