Snowmageddon

People across Buffalo, New York, and the surrounding metro areas are waking up Saturday morning to snowmageddon that dumped between 5-6 feet of snow over the last few days. 

The latest from the Weather Prediction Center warned extreme snowfall "will produce near zero visibility, very difficult to impossible travel, damage to infrastructure, and may paralyze the hardest-hit communities." 

An insane amount of snow was dumped on Highmark Stadium, where the Buffalo Bills play, situated in Orchard Park, New York, in the Southtowns of the Buffalo metro area. The newest reports recorded 77 inches or about 6.5 feet.

  2. "and may paralyze the hardest-hit communities." "

    I would say, if you're paralyzed, then you're hardest-hit.

  6. Makes the lake effect snow we're getting in GR, Michigan seem paltry at best. 12 inches since Friday, with another 6 to 10 inches expected through tonight.

  7. Back in March 1993 dealt with 31" of "wet" snow in the NC Mtns., no power. Quite uncomfortable. Can only imagine handling 5-6'.

  9. Sure would be nice to have cheap energy right about now! Though not at the price of mean tweets. That would be a bridge too far!

    I wonder what Germany's snow load is looking like...
