The 12 most real tweets about #Blizzard2016

For those of us who live on the west coast (what what!), we must rely on Facebook and Twitter for updates on the blizzard that rocked the east coast this weekend.

Below are a list of some of some of the funniest, sweetest, or just plain jaw-dropping tweets about #Blizzard2016.
