Crazy lake snow effect!

Ama - hope your power stays on. That is a crazy amount of snow. Keep warm.


We've got mild temps and lots of rain now. No snow in sight around here.

That is crazy snow - I think the deepest I've ever seen was about a foot! Stay safe Ama and anyone else in the area.

Ama! that is crazy! hope all is OK and you have power?!?! I'm in NY but nowhere near the lake or Buffalo, thank goodness. I don't handle snow very well.

We dug out yesterday. Wound up with 7 feet. Now we just have to wait for the travel bans to be lifted and make it through the thaw without flooding... I still have power and food. And internet...YAY!

Oh my goodness, that is insane. Those photos are crazy!!

Ama, stay warm and positive, warmer weather is on the way. I only hope you are in a higher area.

Oh Ama!!! That is crazy!!! I can't imagine having that much snow!!!!

Well, I have been digging out. We are in the hardest hit area of western NY. By tomorrow we could have 7 feet. We have 5 and half feet already. Everything is closed. Thank God I had the foresight to stock up on Monday before it got really bad. We have been snowed in for three days now.

Luckily, we are used to mega snowstorms. But I have to say, in my 32 years, I have never seen anything like this. I have been taking a lot of pics. Good thing I have some great snowy kits in my scrap stash. Ha!

Gotta see this. I can vouch that this is real. None of these have been photoshopped! Half my town is without power. Please pray for us and send us good vibes!

In other words, Laura, feel bad for me and release DYD early so I can shop while I still have power! Ha!

Our back deck. The snow is halfway up the umbrella on the patio table. Snow is way over my head. Feel like we are living in an igloo.

I knew we must have at least one gal in that area! YIKES! The pictures are just so impressive. I am worried now about all that snow thawing. You guys are supposed to get rain this weekend and pretty high temps (50s) right? I hope you don't flood now too! Keeping you all in my thoughts!

Crazy business in Buffalo! I'm worried too that now you'll flood. Yikes.

It was 75 here today... we went for a walk in tshirts. I'm originally from Michigan so I'm allowed to brag!

Yes, we are supposed to be in the 50s today and 60 perhaps tomorrow. Crazy flood warnings. Luckily, our property slopes downward. I worry about our basement, but my DH has been checking every few hours and we have a shop vac. Fingers crossed. Wondering if we will have school the next two days before holiday break. Many of the schools are being used for shelters...
