There’s probably around 6-8" give or take down here next to D’Youville (west side). I just went and dug the car out so my landlord could get his car out. Then he got stuck so while he dug himself out I went for a few trips around the block. It doesn’t look like the side streets have been plowed all day so it was fun.

Edit: No camera so no pics.

Dude, you lied, I called you on it, get over it. Unless you really don’t know what 3" is, and that would be scary.

lolz @ eMKay in this thread.

Had to make a trip from EA to North campus and back, and back again, got stuck behind plows for a section each time, set the cruise to 35 and yawned. Other than that was doing the speed limit in 2" of slush while all the SUVs were only doing 50 and hogging all the dry road.

Having blown shocks all around means wheel hop in the parking lots so I can’t play around. Guess I should order my xmas present of AGXs.

i was out having a ball in this shit. other then having to snowthrow 3x today… plus once for my elderly godmother.

eh, we have at least 8-10" on the ground - Amherst near UB South. Drifts are well over 18". The dog is loving it, its hilarious.

I went & played in the barren lot on Sheridan where DSW used to be & the Tae Kwan Do place is…  
The snow there is wind blown but not drifted in the main area (huge lot) where I was playing. At one point I stopped, opened the door, and _the untouched stuff was over the step bar on my ranger_.

**_That easily over 1’_**. Ranger 4x4 “off road pkg” ranger on 30.5 all terrains.

Overall, I am quite disappointed with this “winter storm”. :tif:

I even pulled out my winter hat that looks like this one.

I wore it for 5 minutes and took it off because I deemed it unnecessary.

Got another few inches overnight. Maybe 12-15" in the city total, but its hard to tell due to the drifting.

Jeep = Happy me

If I have my own house some time, I wonder if I will ever shovel or clear off the driveway. I may just keep driving over the snow in my Jeep until it becomes 6-10 inches of hard packed ice/snow and lasts all summer.

The snow goes up completely to my dog’s chest stomach.

^ Doh. Some guy up the street from me did the same thing with his Alero right after the bills game. Took him a good 30-40 minutes to dig it out. I was thinking about going up with the truck to pull him out but figured letting him dig it out himself would teach him a better lesson. Alero \<\> snowplow.
