meh, I drove from Seneca st in Buffalo to Hamburg, the roads suck out there but they aren’t bad in the 'burg. And I don’t even have snows on my fwd car, nor do I need them. Lots of idiots driving way too fast in their suvs though. ---

> [@JayS](#): > > I think a foot is being pretty generous for Amherst. I’ve cleared my driveway twice, blowing it with the wind both times so I can see a very accurate edge and no way it’s a foot high. Sitting in my house you’d think it was coming down like crazy but it’s just snow blowing off the roof. yeah, its about 8 inches at most in amherst. I just got done shoveling. Radars show some more snow coming in still. you guys bitching about a foot of snow, do you realize that the forecast was 10-18"? according to my calculations, not necessarily over hyped. I know that it doesnt look like a foot right now, but more snow is still on the way. Shit aint over yet, we will probably end up with at most 10 total in amherst. ---

Yeah there’s just 6-8 inches in downtown Rochester… enough that my plow guy should have come, but of course he hasn’t. If he comes any only plows the first third of the driveway again I’ll be friggin pissed, he knows there’s a car in the garage and the driveway goes downhill toward the garage making it not fun to get out. Plus 6-8 inches of snow means my car is plowing a decent bit ---

I guess they didn’t do too bad forecasting if there is that much snow in the northtowns. It was really disappointing down south though where it counts. Skiing in ellicottvile was terrible today, super wet snow and maybe a couple inches at most. It was clear most of the day. Driving home about 4:30 it started to snow just south of springville and then really picked up around rice rd through to hamburg. Though the news stations do over hype stuff I think its more the viewers that are the problem buying into it and losing their minds. I heard grocery stores were crazy yesterday due to people getting ready for the storm. ---

> [@ILCisDEAD](#): > > This is the reason why lmfao “I’m super super sereal here ok. Man bear pig is a real threat. and I Al Gore,intend to stop him!” It’s pretty slippery out. ice with hard packed snow on top. I got 200lbs of weight in the bed ofmy truck and winterforce tires…so it spretty much a tank. I’m home formy mom’s birthday dinner then back to the firehall towait for some idiot to drive to fast and hit a pole…then it’s my time to shine lol. ---

I have about a foot on the grass in Boston. I just snowblowed the driveway and by the time I was done there was 2" on the driveway again. 2" an hour is not too bad! ---

Here you go, pic from my backyard, in a non-drifted spot, and a spot that does not get much wind. 8 inches. It has been snowing pretty good the last couple hours. ![http://www.emkayusa.com/misc/snow07.jpg](http://www.emkayusa.com/misc/snow07.jpg) ---
