Well the atmosphere is quite different this morning waking up in Wheatfield. Finally got a decent amount of snow overnight and some huge drifts.

If it was a true emergency I MIGHT be able to push through this with the snow tire equipped Enclave but my first trial push went about 50’ before the snow plowing stopped me. Just backed up in my tracks and put it back in the garage since I was only checking to see if the road was passable in case there was an emergency on my street. Take it easy clearing snow because help definitely can’t get to you right now.

^My neighbors little Encore has been stuck like that since last night. If I see them try and dig it out today I’ll go out and give them a hand. First they’ll need to clear their driveway so they have somewhere to put it.

I had waist deep snow on my front steps, and currently chest deep snow on my street. But it’s all drifting. I can see grass in my back yard, lol.

Watching SUVs drive down my street and stop in front of my house… Then throw it in reverse when they realize it’s over the hood, lol

There fact that Buffalo has no snowmobiles is going to be a discussion for another day.

I think we need a “Cajun Navy” style group of snowmobile responders.

My dad got it bad. In Clarence. There’s three feet in the street still. Once it get cleared I gotta figure out how to clear that out.  
Conversely I got nothing again in northern Niagara. I can see my lawn.
