Here's how many inches of snow Vermonters saw during the first winter storm.

As Vermonters woke up to a fresh blanket of snow Tuesday, northwest Vermont was a bit more buried than much of the rest of the state. 

Northern and some of central Vermont were under a winter storm warning until 1 p.m. Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service in Burlington. Places within the warning area were expected to see anywhere from 7-12 inches of snow. The Burlington area was expected to receive 8-12 inches, the service had said Monday morning. 

When the snow slowed down around 10 a.m. Tuesday, the Burlington International Airport in South Burlington — the home of the the area's National Weather Service office — was ranked near the top the list of highest snow totals, with 7.1 inches.

Most of southern Vermont was under a winter weather advisory during the same period and was expected to get between 1 inch and 6 inches of snow and a light glaze of ice, the National Weather Service said.

Snow total reports continued to roll in (as of mid-morning Tuesday), but here are the top reports:

1. St. Albans: 8.3 inches as of 6:26 a.m.
2. Swanton: 8.2 inches as of 7 a.m. 
3. Burlington International Airport, South Burlington: 7.1 inches as of 10 a.m.
4. Shelburne: 7.0 inches as of 9:15 a.m.
5. Milton: 6.9 inches at 9:55 a.m.
6. Burlington: 6.1 inches at 8:44 a.m.
7. Newport: 6.1 inches at 7 a.m.
8. Isle La Motte: 6.0 inches as of 6:41 a.m.
9. Colchester: 5.8 inches as of 5:56 a.m. 
10. Fairfield: 5.8 inches as of 5:56 a.m.

The National Weather Service recommends that people who need to be on the roads should leave extra time to get to their destination and should drive slowly and carefully. On Tuesday morning, the service said a band of moderate snow was set up over the Champlain Valley and was causing snowfall of about an inch per hour.
