I just wanted to tell you that i hate your neck of the woods. More particularly route 20a between west Seneca and Warsaw! That road after a storm when it hasn't been plowed is miserable in a truck.

I would like you to get out there and plow next time ok.....

You have to cut him some slack, he's in a snow belt.

You ain't kiddin! This is the heart of one of the most severe snow belt regions in the country. We had like 7 feet of snow in the last storm. The town of Bennington (next town over) recorded 88 inches. Not bad for like 3 days! LoL!

You really don't want to venture South of I-90 in Western New York in the winter. Even I-90 and North isn't safe, but much safer than the South where I'm at.

Glad you survived it!

Funny Brett....I'm on Grand Island and we had about 3" while you got the several feet! Glad I'm north of those famous belts!

Yeah, my ma could still see the grass in her yard in Amherst and I couldn't see my truck! And this picture wasn't after the storm, this was during the storm. We had another foot after this and all you could see of the truck was the side mirror.

The Grand Island Bridges are insane. Seriously, those are two of the sketchiest bridges you'll find anywhere. They're waaaay too narrow and way too steep. I'm assuming they were built that way for big ships to cross under but man, they should've found a better idea.

During the Blizzard of '77 I was 6 years old. I remember watching my dad shoveling a family out of their second story window. I was standing eye level with the traffic light on the corner. They say this last blizzard was worse in some ways than in '77 but I haven't found anyone that agrees with that. Nothing compares to '77.
