cny first gen 71 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 10 years ago today I took my girl out on our first date in my Monte. It was a nice fall day here. Today was not, western ny got blasted with around 5 feet of snow over the last several hours and northren ny got around 4 feet. Let's keep them in our thoughts and prayers (for those that pray) that they stay safe. I know we have members in those areas. It looks to me like Joe T has avoided it some but I have not talked to him so I don't know for sure. Hopefully all our members especially but everyone stays safe in this time. From what I hear it is still snowing in these areas too so it's not done yet. Please stay safe everyone. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Steve. My house only got about an inch or so yesterday, but...it's supposed to start up again soon at 4 AM, until 11 PM tonight. That's going to be the big one for us. Buffalo and the suburbs have been getting hammered and this second wave is supposed to hit hard again. Hopefully it doesn't move as far north of Buffalo as they project, but we'll find out soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jft69z Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 And there's about 3 inches already and it's only been a couple of hours. Coming down hard too. Gonna be a long day. Just saw something that said 54 inches in Orchard Park, where the Bills game was supposed to be played on Sunday. Guess I really can't bi*ch, lol This was just on the news...always one bonehead wearing shorts during a blizzard. Pushing out a stuck car. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 Our local news said they are up to 66 inches now, they say there's help coming from all over the state but unfortunately most don't really know how to handle that much snow. Northren ny is getting blasted too but they are used to it up there just another day to them. Stay safe everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Apparently the governor is supposed to come here for whatever reason. Hopefully a snow plow will scoop her up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a family oriented forum as Rob says 😁, otherwise I'd tell you how I really feel. No doubt, that guy in shorts is a Bills fan! Thanks, plowing snow as I write this. Can barely keep up with the truck, it's coming down hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still supposed to swing back down and get them again later. We're scheduled for 12-18 inches here according to them now. Certainly looks to be right on track for that at this point.

We were just talking about that today, unfortunately she is still working so time is limited but discussed a little later this winter and next year already. She is already committed to about another 4 to 5 years where she is so we'll have to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long will that stick around before melting ? They're trucking it out on the main roads, no place to put it. Side streets aren't touched in some areas either, according to the news. Supposed to be in the 40's in a couple of days, but that may just present a flood problem for some areas. Hard to say, the next week will be real busy for those people. We got around a foot at my house today, now the second wave just hit and it's a total whiteout right now. Real windy too, so it's going to just blow around and drift up even after I plow it out. It's supposed to pass thru pretty quick, so I'll get out there in a bit to move it. Easier when there's no traffic to watch out for. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jft69z Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Not much to show on my end. I plowed it up last night around midnight, sunny and clear today. Still real windy, no hot tub until that dies down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted November 20, 2022 Author Share Posted November 20, 2022 Nothing here so far, sunny and no snow on the ground but they say it's coming later around mid day. There's a pretty good band coming off the south east end of the lake but north of us so far we'll have to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Saw this yesterday. Also, fans and neighbors had been trying to dig Bills players out so they could get to the airport for the relocated game in Detroit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I hate Chicago winters, but so far I can’t (and won’t) complain. Hell, I may have to unzip a bubble and take a Turkey Day cruise… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 From the Bills stadium. No way the game was happening there today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a kick out of all the tools that are saying the game should still be played there. There is no physical way to clear that stadium and make it safe for a game today. Let alone all the parking lots. And the people can’t get there anyway. But yet they still complain. Tools. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
