Western NY Snow
Can anyone find the TrailManor unit in this photo?
Lancaster NY, a suburb of Buffalo got five feet of snow Monday into Tuesday when a persistent lake effect snow wouldn't move or break up. I'm still digging out today.

OMG That is a lot of snow. I can't imagine shoveling 5 feet. That's up to my shoulders and what about the drifts.
I use to live in South Bend IN and we would get a lot of lake snow from lake Michigan. All winter we got it because the lake almost never froze over and we were the right distance from the lake for the air to cool down and dump the snow. If the wind was coming from the NW it would snow normally 2 to 10" a day with once a year or so a 20 to 30". But never what you guys are being hit with.
Did you get hit again last night?

I spent five years in Michgan/Indiana. Part of the reason I've spent the last thirty in Florida.

At least we will get some rain from it. We're so parched in the Big Bend right now the dogs go from one neighbors yard to another they stop at the hose for a drink 
But I see why my parents moved to Fl from Ma in 1952

Wow! Reminds me of 11 years ago in Denver, we got 3˝'. XC skied around the neighborhood. Neighbor boys (20-something, renting) climbed out an upstairs window, and snow-boarded off the garage into a pile we had shoveled.
I'd say it will be gone soon, but I believe snow stays around for a while in the northeast, doesn't it? Farmer's Almanac said this would be a long, snowy winter. Guess you are off to a good start!

I get bummed when I have to scrape ice off of the windshield in the morning before work.
I get even sadder when I scrape the ice off and on the way the windshield fogs up on the outside, and then I try to spray it with the windshield washer, and then it freezes up on the outside and then I have to stop and scrape it off again. 
We got down to 18.1F last year (right outside the house according to the outdoor probe on the indoor/outdoor thermometer) and that's plenty cold for me.
I now have the newest car, so I get to keep it in the garage. Yay for me!
