Tell that to the familes of the people who died because of this storm...Also to the parents of the teenager found frozen to death when a snow plow was clearing the roads
I've lived in Northern Illinois my whole life, the most I've seen in 1 storm was around 2 feet, so hats off to those out around Buffalo. Those that live around the Great Lakes are a hearty stock.
@@riveralley I lived in Lake County, IL and our town got something like 26 inches on that Groundhogs Day blizzard in 2011. Was one of the craziest experiences I have ever had.
TBH as someone living in Scotland that's something we really only see in the mountains, and then only when it drifts. We're at 450ft and the most we've had recently was 2ft overnight in the winter of 2017.
This is snow-belts only thanks to those Great Lakes. Most I've seen just outside the belts in Ohio and Indiana was from a different type of storm. 15 inches. This is probably unique to Buffalo lol. Unless you're in the mountains. It's unheard of to me too
Yup, Vegas hasn’t snowed this year. Last year I’m not sure if I saw any stuck snow but the two years before that there was a patch of snow in my backyard😂 We do get icy pools sometimes just the top cm years ago it was a couple inches. But not often that happens.
The time lapse in itself is beautiful.... Liked it... but I have my doubts if it is really 6 ft or not. The cars stand at 5 ft, and are still visible. I am guessing 3'4''-3'5''
If you lived in a lake effect snow area as I do you would know that a foot of snow can settle and compact to just a few inches under its own weight and in just a few hours. Don't have to believe me---look it up.😉
Looks awesome,here in the UK we just get damp wet mild winters, really miss it snowing here, although bet it's pretty tough living with that sort of weather regularly.
Yeah some places in the uk are lucky to get a very light dusting let a lone a decent covering. The last time the uk got a decent covering was when we had the Beast from the east hit back in 2018, which was like it used to be in the early 90s.
If you can keep up with it every four to eight hours it is easier than trying to clear it all at once. Brought up by a WWII vet. By the numbers. Not only do you clear the driveway, you clear it past the edge so that when it melts it doesn't freeze up on the driveway. Been clearing snow since I was five years old. We had steel shovels back then.
I needed this video right now😢 I’m in southern Ontario and we’ve hardly had any snow this year. It’s been wet and rainy when it should be snowing. I miss it. I miss bundling up and shovelling my driveway, waving to my neighbours while they shovel theirs. I miss tobogganing and snowball fights with friends. I miss snow days off school, when you can stay inside and play video games. I miss curling up by the fire with a cup of hot chocolate. I miss snowboarding and skiing on real snow, instead of fake, pebbly ice. Bring my Canadian winter back❄️☃️🌨️🏂⛷️☕️
I’ve lived in Texas all my life and the most I’ve probably seen is 4 inches. I’ve had so many childhood dreams of playing in that deep of snow, building igloos or tunnels, or just having a snowball fight.
ugh, the music sounds like minimalistic Philip Glass-style with little embellishments to make it sounds like it's changing but the progression drags on and on ad nauseam. Cool snow time lapse though!
The neighbor was smart, keep on top of it, less to plow/ shovel at the very end. Had 9 feet in Golden Colorado years back and we did the same thing…..shoveled a couple times, so it wasn’t so bad when it finally stopped snowing and it really helped.
I'm in South Dakota and we got quite a bit of snow last year too! Only a bit over 2 feet, but it was enough for my workplace to be like "Yeah actually we have enough people working at home, we will have mercy on you" and called two snow days. Took me about an hour and a half to dig out my car with a rather insufficient shovel. We generally don't keep big shovels here in the apts but maybe I should...
I used to live in Sioux Falls. When I moved there in Januiary 1997, someone told me that the snow on the ground was the same snow that had been there since the previous October :D I could NOT believe that because I'm from Kentucky. In 1999 I think we had a "thundersnow" there that dumped about a foot of snow. I then moved to Massachusetts and experienced TWO FEET of snow Christmas eve my first year there. The most snow I've ever experienced, believe it or not, was right here in Kentucky in 1994 when my town got 32+ inches.
yeah a light dusting people shite them selves, i am like why?? we used to get decent snow covering back in the early 90s. The beast from the east that we had in the 2018, was just like what we had years ago. my dad said the uk battled far worse, and my grandparents used to have snow like this in the video.
The thing is that lake effect snow is very predictable. There are areas of Buffalo that dont get this , or get it more rarely . You can be a Buffalo resident , and avoid these senerios for the most part
Living in Australia, I can’t get used to snow. I went to Japan during the winter time and the first time walking on the frozen ground I looked like Bambi taking his first steps. Of course a slipt over and landed butt first in the snow. My friend was couldn’t stop herself from laughing.
Major shout out to the neighbor tryin to keep his drive clear. I do that too, but I’m an on call field service tech, I have to be able to leave at a moments notice, which is why I drive a 4x4 and do the same thing as that man, go out and clear it once it hits about a foot.
i watched this from south carolina where i have lived for the past 28 years, the most snow i have seen in that time is 3 inches and it was gone when the sun rose, i use to live in mass and alaska
Every now and again when there's a particularly bad storm they'll call in the National Guard to help. I remember back in 2014 when a National Guardsman in a bucket loader was clearing the street after we got 74 inches of snowfall because it was just too deep for even the heavy-duty plows to clear.
My cousin lives in Buffalo and says the winter weather is unbelievable when it comes in. Especially for a brit from the south east of England where we get a proper snowfall every 3 or 4 years that might bring around 6 inches of snow.😂😂
Truth be told. Snowstorms in Buffalo are no joke. I got a friend in suburban Buffalo and the only reason I would visit her in the weather is because she is a nice person. I would love to cuddle with her too because she is a beautiful human being and she is plus sized. More pusion for the cushion.
I feel sorry for those who have to be out in this, but if you are home safe and can stay there, being snowed in can be enjoyable. Where I live in the UK we haven't had this amount of snow since 2010 but then I was snowed in for almost a week, living alone in a 400 year old cottage, with the nearest neighbours a quarter mile in either direction.
As I have lived most of my life primarily in the Intermountain West, snowfall is my favorite of all weather conditions with more snow the better. I instinctively want to slap the snow hate out of people's mouths when they speak negatively toward snow. Sadly, I have witnessed the disappearance of the Great Salt Lake and any 'lake effect' it used to provide in ramping up the energy of moisture-laden storms, particularly those in the winter. How disconnected all too many people seem to be from ALL their consumables, including the very water on which they rely for baseline survival. Like clockwork winters like the one in this video would occur in Northern Utah a couple of times every decade; this last decade, not so much. If you should happen to read this and are unfamiliar with the plight of the Great Salt Lake, it is every American's interest to learn.
Props to the neighbor trying to fight the storm. "You will Not Take my driveway and car!"
You can only fight for so long.
I'd be more worried about my roof
I’d build a snowman😂
If ur home it's so much easier doing that then when it's deeper than the ht of the blower 😂
gotta be a 40 year old dad with 3 kids in the house trying to get away
That's super pretty! Snow always looks so pure and white.
Thank you D! This storm was crazy, 77" of snow in just over 2 days!
Yeah, as long as you don't have to clear it.
@@joelstein4657 Do you drive a snowplow? Cause if you do then I can understand not enjoying snow that much.
Tell that to the familes of the people who died because of this storm...Also to the parents of the teenager found frozen to death when a snow plow was clearing the roads

Me too
crazy how when its snowing hard day and night is kinda the same almost d this effect is increasingly visible in cities. very pleasant feeling.
Reflection of light by snow and our beloved light pollution
As a resident of Southern Arizona, weather like this is nearly impossible to comprehend.
As someone who lives in Alabama, I agree with your statement.

2.5ft maximum 28inch
3ft = 1M/36inch
Vehicle Alloys are 17-18 inch + 5 for Tire wall = 27inch....Top of wheel arch 👍

I agree As well I also Miss those Days I want right now. When I there was 2 Snow days it’s School day for Exam Week. This is Awful.
It will come back. I had my first snow day since 2021 this winter, well actually 2 and I’m in NJ.
I grew up in Montreal and watching this made me nostalgic although I don't remember getting this much snow even there ... maybe once around 1970.
This is getting recommended right before a giant winter storm is gonna hit my area😂
This is my favorite!!! The editing with the drone is amazing...again I like the vibe it gives off.
What?
It might have been a mounted camera
@@wilsonwayne4395 Yeah. Obviously.
@@mikeymcmikeface5599 Nest- top right in the frame throughout the video.
Hey Mark this was a mounted cam via nest. I have some drone video on my channel, but on other videos.
Thank you for this wonderful snow movie, I like the atmosphere and also the piano music. Perfect for me. Greetings from Stuttgart, Germany.
❤
In Georgia (state) we wish we got snow like that😢…
We get just a little once every two to four years😢😢
I want this snow in Romaniaaaa😢
What an awesome Christmas this was! Seriously amazing and beautiful
Why am I getting recommended this when it is snowing 😂
Omg! This is a dream! Wish we had snow like this
I live in Metro Detroit But this is truly terrifying. See you in the spring.
That is a lot of snow alright 😲😳☺️ Beautiful ❤❤❤
I’ve lived in Texas all my life and the most I’ve probably seen is 4 inches. I’ve had so many childhood dreams of playing in that deep of snow, building igloos or tunnels, or just having a snowball fight.
I love these I love winter and snow.
at what point do you say "just screw it..." ? Wow!
Did you mean 2 feet?

Memories of the January 1977 storm,
Being in North Dakota used to be much like that every year, but that isn’t the case anymore. Now it rains in December
Didn't want to skip video until them 2 cars were covered fully with snow
I'm in South Dakota and we got quite a bit of snow last year too!

You need to continue with the removal of the snow....
You should park out at the end of the driveway so you don't have to clear the whole thing to get out when the time comes.
The thing is that lake effect snow is very predictable. There are areas of Buffalo that dont get this , or get it more rarely . You can be a Buffalo resident , and avoid these senerios for the most part

Once it gets to 2ft no point, the road won't be clear for you to drive any further than your drive.
In a Charlie Brown comic, Lucy says: “if grass and flowers come up from the ground, then so does snow!” I think that this Timelapse proves this.
Beautiful ❤

Yeah we get some crazy snowstorms here!
that's gorgeous, but surely 6 feet would be over the roofs of the vehicles right ;)
I grew up there. In South Carolina now. I DON'T miss it!
Did you bring your poisonous Democrat vote with you?
Some people just aren’t cut out for the cold. Others aren’t good with the heat

This is still a lot of snow
Love it. Send some our way 🙏
Too short, especially with that awesome piano piece. How did you do with the storm that hit Buffalo area on 12/22 around Christmas? Buff got 77 inches
Next time I'll do a longer one! We had 55" during that one.
can't even get rain here much less snow
I live in Northern Michigan, when it starts snowing like this, everyone jumps in their winter beater with a heater 4X4 and go play in it!!😂😂😂😂
That’s how it should be!
Where is this video filmed please
South of Buffalo New York
wow.
man I live in Florida all we get is 9 inches of rain every hour
Im only 5ft that could kill meh 😧
Aaaah, nothing like the swedish summer.
I am a forever northern NH boy. We have our fair share of snow BUT it takes a very hardy breed to live in Buffalo and surrounding areas. Damn!
Most snow ive ever seen in 36 inches. 6 foot is crazy
And they never lost power
As a child in the 1970's, this was a very typical winter!
No snow this year in the uk
It must be terrible if one needs to get anywhere swiftly.
I would WANT 1-2 foot snow ❄️ at my place!!!!!!
Meanwhile the UK has 25mm of snow and closes everywhere.
Love the marshmallow effect ! 🎉😅

I wish it snowed that much where I live, the biggest snowfall we get a winter is usually 6 inches.
I wish Kentucky had that much
Can this flood my recommended, please? This is so interesting lol
And just remember the mailman is out there trudging through six feet of snow to deliver you ads about your town.
If I lived in a place that got lake effect snow, I would definitely have a heated driveway.
Did you lose power? How long?
Im on the southeast side of Lake Michigan that lake effect is no joke sometimes!
My boss be like, "hey you can still come into work right?"
Dude I would be in HEAVEN if this happened to me
For some reason it makes me want to eat all of that snow.
Amazing.
I’m glad I live in south FL sheesh
I’m moving to Buffalo New York
A very extreme snowstorm however it still pales in comparison to the one that hit Newfoundland, Canada last winter.
I like your video
Thanks nick!
I live in an area with no snow so i know nothing about this, can your roof hold all that weight? What if you have an emergency?
The roofs here are designed to handle a lot of snow. They have to match certain building codes. Similar to Florida and its hurricane building codes.
I am thankful every day that I live in the South (except for tornadoes).
Yeah I'll shovel snow instead of boarding up my windows
I live in Wisconsin we get snow to. But I think they might wear out snow shovels, over there in Buffalo New York.
Next door neighbor finally gave up snowblowing. That is indeed a lot of snow.
I waited until the storm was over to snowblow, it was virtually impossible to keep up!
Like he was going somewhere in the morning. 😂
6 feet of snow, coming through my radio (RIP LG)
The cars are 4-5 ft. tall they are not buried , so maybe 3 ft. at most
How long did it take
hope you're stocked-up
Legend has it, the bushes were never seen again.
I lost 2 bushes during this storm. 😥

How disconnected all too many people seem to be from ALL their consumables, including the very water on which they rely for baseline survival. Like clockwork winters like the one in this video would occur in Northern Utah a couple of times every decade; this last decade, not so much.
