They Measured Snow in Feet, Not Inches!
Yeah, you read that right. We're not talking about a measly few inches here. This lake-effect snowstorm piled on the snowmageddon with some areas reporting over 6 FEET of the cold stuff! Imagine digging your car out of that – you might need a pickaxe and a Sherpa.
While Buffalo itself saw a respectable (ahem, terrifying) 10-ish inches, some neighboring towns got absolutely hammered. We're talking Hamburg turning into Ham-buried with a whopping 41 inches, and West Seneca disappearing under a blanket of nearly 75 inches!
