Not sure he anticipated 4’ of snow in his defense. Also not sure he could fit it in the garage with both cars parked there.

Just came back from venturing. I made it as far as south Cheektowaga before the police had it blocked and wouldn’t let anyone in. Definitely a big change from sunny Tonawanda!

Why doesn’t he just walk through it and then fire it up in the shed and make a path back? Just got to be careful on the grass I suppose(but I don’t own a snow blower so maybe it’s not possible).

Nope, I’m almost 30mi north west of him. I’m an asshole, but I still would have been helping him

NOAA is calling for 5-6 feet now in the persistent bands. Erie Emergency Services just put the call out for snowmobile volunteers. This has gone from “ha ha, look at all the snow” to “oh shit, this is really dangerous”.
