Winter Storm Hercules has dumped inches upon inches of beautiful snow around the city, which now looks more like Ice Planet Hoth than a thriving metropolis. Before it all turns to brown slush, let's capture it for eternity in our camera phones, and one day we can show our grandkids photos of that time it snowed more than a couple of fast-melting inches. They may not even know about snow! (Have we mentioned Chasing Ice is on Netflix?)

We'll be adding photos to this gallery all day long, so send your best shots (from today, not last night) to us (along with the location and how you would like to be credited) and our Photo Gallery Curator will include the best ones.

UPDATE: Please do not send photos smaller than 900 pixels wide. And if we're being picky, please try to make them horizontal.

UPDATE II: You can stop sending photos now :)
