By Jesse Ferrell, AccuWeather meteorologist

Published Dec 8, 2010 9:34 AM EDT | Updated Dec 9, 2010 3:11 PM EDT

UPDATE: Lucan, Ontario is now reporting 153 cm (60 inches or 5 feet) as of this morning, and it's still snowing! We are now talking in a news story about the possibility of roofs collapsing in this area next week after a total of up to 10 feet of snow! An update of U.S. snowfalls:

Lacona, NY: 47.7"
North Underhill, VT: 32.1"
Pierpoint, OH: 26.9"
Franklin Center, PA: 24.9"

ORIGINAL POST: This week's lake-effect snow event has been pretty darn impressive, with over 40 inches reported in some areas. The Tug Hill webcam, shown below (click for live), says about 3 and a half feet there this morning (you can view all lake-effect webcams here).
