One of the few small clear spots form any of my windows since it has been so windy at my house. It’s been pretty steady snow all night/day, but the wind has just been wicked. ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/1546094_10153726721725427_1054224736_n_zps85007e1d.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/1546094_10153726721725427_1054224736_n_zps85007e1d.jpg) Video I shot today.

Just drove the whole length of Sheridan from Tonawanda to Clarence, then Main to Ransom.

Town of Hamburg Emergency Services… Officials met this morning to determine an action plan for phase 2 of the “Polar Vortex” According to the NWS, the LES is supposed to sink south over us beginning shortly, impacting the area by 4pm. The band will settle over us for the night. Bitter wind chills and blowing snow will again be a concern overnight. So for that reason, the State of Emergency will remain in effect, along with the driving ban. Portions of the town is clear, however conditions vary drastically. It is still dangerous to be outside ---

If the ban isn’t lifted in Orchard Park or EA tomorrow morning I’m not going in at all. Today was the first snow day in the company’s history from what I gather. Definitely the first in at least 13 years. October storm? Fuck you, go to work. ---

I couldn’t take any, but the wind dislodged tons of ice from the lake and it’s getting stacked up in the river pretty high. It’s up to the jogging path. ---
