it's subsiding Ted but it was really intense the night before,just look at the huge snow drifts blocking the road...actually I didn't want to overdo the falling snow or all you'd see is white and it would block out the details 8·}

BG the back plough is a frew car lengths behind,if you go by the width of the road you'll see it's proportionate to the front plough

Congrats, Luis! Still, it ain't much of a blizzard compared to what Ontario and Western New York receive.

I'd almost forgotten how much fun we had in '77. Niagara Falls and Amherst didn't get hit quite as bad as Buffalo. I remember ferrying my brother-in-law between those towns at the height of the storm. I was driving a 1970 Volkswagen Beetle.

I'd plow through 3-4 foot snow drifts by hitting them fast. The flat-bottomed Beetle surfed nicely. On the return trip, I encountered a guy walking near a desolate intersection. I offered him a ride. He declined. Go figure.

Thanks for the links. The History Channel video was fascinating.

the aerodinamic shape of the VW beetle is perfect for slicing through snowdrifts as long as there isnt a firehydrant buried inside one...I actuallt learned to drive with a 59 beetle

Toronto being on the northern shore of lake Ontario never gets hit as hard as Buffalo but still got some badass blizzards..I drove a cab for a few years and had to work through some pretty rough winters
