Did someone say treat?!

11. 3 feet in less than a day? How about

2 storms back to back in 3 days, dumping a total of 7 feet in 2014? Caved in several buildings, even with our building codes designed to tolerate high amounts. Again, I was lucky that my area is just past the snow belt and only got around 3 feet. The governor arrived with a caravan of plows and trucks to personally direct rescues and snow removal.

It's because Buffalo is at the eastern end of the lake, getting the accumulated moisture of the length of Lake Erie and sometimes Superior, depending on how the winds are blowing.

But aside from snowfall amounts, we do often get a dose of your weather patterns, especially summer thunderstorms. In winter, when you're getting snowed on, we just add aeveral inches to your forecast to know what we'll get. (The other storm pattern for us is the Ohio Valley, which blows from SW to NE here.)

Glad you and you animals are ok. Keep the videos coming. We love them.
