car.jpgbridge.jpgthere is about 5- 6 feet of snow. I was up there flying around on snowmobile most of day helping out the fire department in lancaster/ depew outside buffalo. The storm they got hit with is no joke... I had pictures.. Then lost cell phone somewhere.. No idea where forgot to zip up a pocket i had it in... lol but here is few off my cousins phone
If it don't have 6 wheels and floats.. isn't any good to me. Have you ever tried floating a 4 wheeler across a pond... Doesn't work very well does it?
The towns north of the City of Buffalo saw very little snow. The dominant snow band where rates of >5" per hour was localized in a 7-10 mile wide knife edge that was focused just south of the city. It's nothing even comparable to a synoptic snowfall that might only drop a foot or so. I was on a job south of Rochester and watched the band on radar stay absolutely stationary for nearly 12 hours. At those rates, in populated areas, there's absolutely nothing to do with the snow. For the most part, these aren't nice rural roads where you can just get a chain of plows going and push it off to the side. The communities affected amounted to 450-500 thousand people, and you have to put it in a truck and haul it away. It takes a long time to do that just for the major arterials, let alone the side streets.
We'll get by. Only a couple more feet are forecast through Friday....
