I've always been awe struck by those incredible lake effect storms. I even considered SUNY Buffalo for my masters in hopes of experiencing a couple. Never materialized.
Cool pic from NOAA today

I talked with a buddy of mine who lives in Hamburg, a southern suburb of Buffalo,he has over 70 inches and it is still coming down.
It has the potential to exceed the 24 hour record for snowfall with another 2 feet predicted tonight.
Snowing 4-6 inches per hour there now.
Me,an hour east,not so much,but, plenty in the hills south of here.
60-70 mph winds and whiteouts now.
Angry weather.
It was 70 here this past monday and it is going to be 60 by tuesday.
Lake effect snow skis like steamboat powder.Off to it in the morning.

Our son and his wife live in Buffalo. By this morning they had over six feet of snow on level ground. Then there were spots with over seven feet in drifted areas. Tomorrow two more feet is expected. It's simply unbelievable.

My big bro, down by Lake Erie, had to shovel his way OUT of his house at the front door. Back door ok since it's up higher and off a deck.
Whew, so glad I'm a west coaster now.

All that snow is going to waste, a big warmup is coming and pretty soon it will all be in Lake Erie.

Wilbeer! The drone video was interesting, because of the snow & storm, for a while. (I only lasted 3 minutes)
I'm amazed it could fly in those conditions.

New one day snowfall record.
One could imagine in 3-4 days Buff received more snow than most American cities receive in one season and it is november.
And it is still coming .....
