Winter starts in Buffalo

Two feet of snow overnight??? How's it going out there Sid?

I just read that 220,000 people are without power, parts of the highways are closed and they shut down the airport.

It's going to be a cold game in Detroit tonight also.

It's getting cold here in SE Texas too. It barely got above 70 today. People are starting to wear jackets and sweaters. Jesus H. Christ, I own one coat and I don't get it out until it gets a lot colder than this.

my power went out at 10am this morning...most were out last evening....i'm in the midst of moving....found out the power is still on here(my old place)...so..me,my son,two dogs,and my CPAP will be here 'til the power goes back on.......just found out there will be no running water for a number of days...due to the outage..??.....

i heard that as many as 250,000 people are without power...and may be 'til as late as NEXT FRIDAY!!!???.....50% of ALL the trees in WNY were damaged to some degree by this storm.....our park system is elaborate...designed by olmstead (Central park)...there are thousands of trees.....power lines are down..cable lines are down....really ugly....
thanks for any well wishes and prayers....

Wow Sid,

Sounds pretty crazy. it was as low as 40 this morning here in NYC but 2 feet of snow in id October is baffling.

Hope you are doing ok and will get the power back soon.

If we can put a man on the moon it really should not take a week to fix power lines

Stay safe and keep us informed
