There is usually about 8 to 10 days a year with anywhere near this much snow on the ground though, so dont get too excitied.

Re: lotsa snow here....

It's snowing a bit here today too. Nothing like that though! My suggestion is to make some of these.. <---:D

Re: lotsa snow here....

manhatten got it easy, out by me there is about 30-32 inches. terrible conditions going to work today. rear wheel drive doesnt help either. all the trees are breaking and power lines all over. on saturday night on my way home, i watched a hinda civic slide off the road, and into a huge exit sign which proceeded to fall on the car. and there about 50 cars or vans on the side of the road abandoned.

Re: lotsa snow here....

sorry no pics to post, but lemme paint a picture for you. 33" of snow in a little over 24 hours. imagine the snow banks left by the plows at roughly 3-4ft tall. then the large piles of snow that got piled up by the trucks are anywhere from 6 to 12ft tall. those mounds are gonna take years to melt. as of now its all still a pretty white blanket, but give it a day or two. we are gonna be stuck in a gooshy sloshy mess for weeks.

Re: lotsa snow here....

Yeah, no large puddles to jump over today, but the puddles of slush in manhattan get mighty nasty... tomorrow should be a hoot

Re: lotsa snow here....

wow. great pics guys and thank you for sharing. really neat to have a story behind them.

in oregon, we plan to have a nice bit of Hudson Bay weather at the end of this week. nothing like your records of snow, but damn cold. so the west may get a little blast as well.

I'd be willing to just jump out of an airplane with no parachute. thatmuch snow makes it looks safe :not me:

Re: lotsa snow here....

ill post some pics later on when i get home. we have 3-4 ft drifts in our area. Never mind the piles the plows made.

Re: lotsa snow here....

here in buffalo every winter is like this, so we're used to it. i remember a few years ago we got 7-8 FEET in 2 days. the city was in crisis. 12 ft. snowbanks on each side of the road. it was maddness. let's just say the snowboarding was good.......!

Re: lotsa snow here....

Damn, I wish it would snow like that here. Actually you would think it would just plain snow. It's been fairly warm this winter for us in the Seattle area.
