I saw your snowfall on the news earlier. Can't believe how much you're getting. WOW! I am 5'6" tall and the snow is up to my chin. We are actually buried in our homes. We still have a travel ban. It is to bad they couldn't pack this snow up and ship it to CA because they are suffering from a drought. The National Guard has been called in to help with snow removal. They usually load up dump trucks and take it to empty lots. People have been stuck in their cars for a whole day. It has stopped snowing for now because the ban has moved farther north but it will be heading back down later. It is bad too because it is so cold. By the weekend and early part of next week it is supposed to warm up to about 60 degrees and good Lord what a mess that will be. They just announced our travel ban may not be lifted for another 24 to 48 hours. It was the strangest sight to see the lake with sunshine and in the background the clouds looked like a mountain range, that's how solid the cloud bank was. 2500 tons of snow has been moved so far. They are talking about taking the snow and dumping it back in the lake because they will run out of places to dump it. The life and times of living in WNY close to the lakes. To think people here moan when there's a few inches of snow on the ground but as the saying goes, "there's always someone worse off than you are." I saw the reports on the news and they say six people have died, we really don't know how lucky we are. Keep safe Lolita, the thoughts and prayers of us all are with you.

Thanks to all the ladies here for the well wishes. I'm safe in the house with all the supplies I need. It is still snowing but lightly and it is supposed to get heavier as the night wears on. Still a driving ban in my area they say may be in effect for 24 to 48 more hours. We had a little sunshine today which gave you a real view of it all, just amazing. They are saying this is more snow than we generally get for all the winter months. National Guard has been called in to help move the snow to empty lots. 60 inches in my area alone. We have had blizzards that last a day but not like this. If the lake was frozen this wouldn't happen but with it still being above freezing the air just picks up the moisture and turns it into snow. Thank God that there hasn't been wide spread power outages. They gave us a lot of warning this was coming so I made sure I was prepared. I am considering moving south after this. Sunny shorts weather, not eskimo, nannook of the north attire.

Wow, bless you Lolita. Stay safe! I heard about people having heart attacks while shoveling and houses caving in under the weight. I guess if you buidling is sturdy it can be some insulation and keep you warm inside. Trouble is if the power is out I guess, you can put your stuff from the freezer outside but eh. When I was a kid we had a big fireplace and cast iron stove in my parents brick house so we were always okay. Good thing you are stocked up! <3

Yes, some had heart attacks, one was crushed between his truck and one went off into a ditch and they found him in his car. Regular snow blowers won't work on this snow it is to deep. Ellicottville will be happy because that is ski country and they love the snow the more the merrier. Those night views of the storm were really awesome to see, the wall of clouds. That's exactly what it looked like. A mountain range od clouds. You all are the best bunch of ladies♥

smiley-gen013 smiley-hug003 Woohoo... Irn Bru... ecosse07o I thought it was banned in America because we wouldn't disclose the secret ingredients and recipe? Unless, the company has taken out ingredients that they know America don't allow, and made a USA version of it. USA won't disclose Coca-Cola's recipe or ingredients, so there's a UK version of it. Cge, we need an Irn Bru emoticon if possible smiley-signs007 And, maybe an all things Scottish thread
