New York State braces for yet more snow - As 12 feet (4 meters) of snow were not enough, parts of New York State are bracing themselves for yet more snowfall this week!
This morning the National Weather Service posted an urgent warning of heavy snow for western and central New York State. Up to a foot or more of fresh snow is forecast.
Parts of up state New York were said to be more akin to the Arctic, with only the tops of street signs and barn and church roofs visible. Mrs. Yerdon who measured the 358cms (141 inches ) of snow said that her home now resembled a giant marshmallow and said that if she wanted to walk down her driveway she would not only need her snowshoes but a bulldozer too! http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/world/news/13022007news.shtml |

Snow Just Won't Stop in Upstate N.Y. - Intense lake-effect snow squalls that buried communities along eastern Lake Ontario for nine straight days diminished Sunday - then started up again early Monday.
Unofficially, the squalls have dumped 12 feet, 2 inches of snow at Redfield. If accurate, that would break the state record of 10 feet, 7 inches of snow that fell in nearby Montague over seven days ending Jan. 1, 2002, said Steve McLaughlin, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Buffalo.
"We may get one more burst of snow. But then it's over. Finally, some mercy," McLaughlin said. However, the forecaster noted that a coastal winter storm expected midweek could bring another 6 to 12 inches.

At times, the snow has fallen at a rate of as much as 5 inches an hour. The snowfall was accompanied by high winds, creating whiteouts and other problems around the state.

Eight feet of snow expected in upstate New York - Six feet has fallen so far, with more expected. "It’s almost an unreal amount," said Mayor Randy Bateman of Oswego. "We catch up when it stops, but then it just comes again, even heavier."
"When you get 5 feet of snow in 24 hours, it’s tough," said Oswego Fire Chief Ed Geers.
Whiteout conditions—the snow has been falling at a rate of 5 inches an hour at times —forced closure of 15 miles of Interstate 81 between Central Square and Pulaski.
The bitter cold and slippery roads have contributed to at least 19 deaths.
In West Virginia, where as much as 9 inches of snow has fallen, officials called snowplow drivers out of retirement to clear the roads. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17042993/ Thanks to Larry Cook for this link. Larry asks, "Where do you put eight feet of snow?" |

Record snowfall creating problems - Snow in the road, snow blocking driveways and snow piled up so high, it looks like a mountain: there is so much snow, Anchorage residents are getting fed up--not with Mother Nature, but with the way the city is handling it.
Anchorage‘s snow-removal budget of two million dollars is set by a yearly snowfall of under 70 inches. So far this season, Anchorage has seen more than 74 inches of the white stuff--more than normally falls in an entire winter. And there are still four months left in the snow season. http://www.ktva.com/topstory/ci_5096272 Thanks to Clay Olson for this link |

Massive snowfall in Anchorage 24 Jan 07 –– Having received more than 74 inches of snow this season, Anchorage, Alaska has been hit with twice the normal amount of snow that falls during the entire winter … and the season is only half over.
According to the city, it's reaching a crisis level. The city can plow the roads, but where to put the snow? Two-lane roads are quickly becoming one.
"I've lived in Alaska since 1967 and I don't remember ever having this much snow before," said resident Joyce Elliston.
The city is already $2 million over budget for snow removal this season.

300,000 still lack power as new storm looms Winter wreaks havoc from Texas to Maine; death toll hits 55 Tens of thousands of electricity customers are likely to still lack power a week after the ice storm blamed for 55 deaths in nine states.
Houston and San Antonio were under rare ice warnings, while a 300-mile stretch of I-10 from Fort Stockton to San Antonio was closed because of fresh snow atop a layer of ice.
