The Things Northerns Put Up With!

[SirSnookalot]

Never have seen snow that deep.  One good thing about living in Detroit was giving Buffalo our weather.  My only issue is what beach I'm fishing at this morning.

The only thing better than getting to play in three feet of snow, is listening to the hillbillies having to deal with one inch of it.

 

The only survival tip I can offer is that Vodka doesn't freeze solid!

Ice goes in your tea...not on the ground.

I'll take this snow over blazing heat/humidity from April-Oct. I  have lived in the south during the summer, there is a reason I am back in the arctic.

Gonna be 60 Sunday and Monday and melt it all

Better build an ark.

That 5 - 5 record isn't helping their cause any . . . . . .

Neither will playing a home game in Detroit with no practice! It gives me great pleasure to see Bills fans moping around, lol.

Now you understand why I night fish from April-Oct.

Ice has some very practical uses.  It can used to reduce swelling or ease the ache of sore muscles.  It can give the shore bound angler the chance to reach many parts of a lake that they can only look at during the summer.  And most importantly, it does a really good job when thrown into a cooler on top of a 12-Pack of barley pop during those long hot summers!

Looks like it's finally over for the most part. I got called and asked if I wanted to go on state active duty to go dig people out I declined that offer fast lol.

[ww2farmer]

Took me from 10:30 or so this morning till noon to dig my jeep out, and we only had a foot or so. Drove up to my elderly grandfathers house and cleaned the mess up there, not nearly as bad. He has a decent snow blower, and he only got 6-8" as he was on the western most fringe of the storm.

[J Francho]

No real measurable snow by me, though my commute last night was one hour for a 12 mile drive up 590.  It took 45 minutes this morning.  Apparently snow is not a prerequisite for pile ups on 590. 

[clayton86]

All the semis are taking 104 since the 90 is closed takes me 15 min longer to get to work just due to the convoy of semis still trying to move their shipment.

[J Francho]

Seems like 31 would be a better option.

[wnybassman]

Best I can figure is we got 30-32 inches total between the two events, although with the ground still being warm it has settled out to a couple feet now.   Routes 20, 19 and 63 were parking lots last night, but delivering mail on them today you would never know it, most were bared off to pavement.

To many little towns and lights. Once out of rochester it's all 55 and straight shot to the falls

And 31 was in the snow belt for the most part. My gf in Holley has like 2" go a mile north to 104 and nothing, mile south to 31 and there is about 12"
