Growing up in Buffalo, now living 40 miles southeast in wyoming county, still the snow belt depending on how the wind blows off that big puddle we call Erie, we get surprised every now and then...last Big One I got stranded at my mom's house for 3 days...7 feet of snow overnight..good thing I get along with my mom...here in wny as in Willie B's backyard most folks are prepared for this crap..plenty of grub in the freezer, generators or some kind of heaters in case the power quits..I thought it was comical when I escaped from my mom's driveway that last storm,after the state of emergency was lifted and stores were opened, that just about everyone I saw dragging a sled down the newly opened roads were not stocking up on edible provisions, but most sleds were loaded with boxes of beer...some for me and some for the neighbor down the street who couldn't get out...now that's why they call Buffalo the city of good neighbors. Luckily we dodged the bullet this time, but as long as the lake is wide open....hold on to your hat it's coming our way sooner or later...
