I Don’t need to watch the footage-—I went to Syracuse University and endured THAT for four very cold years....

It's NY. We're hardened snow bunnies.

I can remember putting hubbies waders on to walk the path in the street to the dairy, a couple miles away, to get milk for my kids.

We didn't pay much attention to weather reports back then. We still read the newspaper.

We didn't worry about stuff. There was the corner store. But even he didn't make it in that day.

Now if I need anything I have to drive there. And so....we watch the weather report and stock up as needed.

It's NY and it's winter!!

Looks like my neighborhood in Michigan when I was growing up. That much snow makes for fabulous snow caves. And also frozen feet.

“Drones”

In my day, we called them toy helicopters, with video cameras attached.

A new use for drones!!!!

I used to live on the highest hill right off the lake. South East of Buffalo. We would get about double what fell in Buffalo.

You knew it was really winter when the snow plows would stop running and only snow blowers would cut a single traffic lane.

Back in the Blizzard of ‘77, my dad was the President of the Erie County snowmobile association and he ran an enormous rescue operation during the blizzard. He organized food and medicine deliveries and even took a lady in labor to the hospital on his snowmobile. Often they would only see the antenna on a car and dig down to find people trapped in the car.

Well, I'm here in Orchard Park, NY 1 1/2 miles from the Buffalo Bills stadium. The second faze of the storm has dumped another 12 inches of snow on top of the 48 inches we already have. Aside from “cabin fever” we're just fine. The majority of people know enough to stock up on food and other staples when we get winter storm warnings. Have no idea how the county is going to clean the snow out of the Bill's Stadium in time for Sunday's game. Requests have gone out for people to shovel snow @ $10/hr. Of course there are driving bans and people will be ticketed if they go out on the unplowed roads. To be fair, the roads are being cleaned as I write this. Three days after the storm began and we're finally starting to see progress.=-O
