Got a foot here yesterday and it hasn't stopped snowing all day. Just light snow bouncing back off the water. Not even sure what they're calling for tomorrow.

You think you got it bad? I lived in Buffalo. We had the Infamous Blizzard of '77. Once it starts looking like this you get to complain.

Here's some old news photos:




This house, located in Depew, NY was almost totally buried by tremendous snowdrifts. This is the east side of the house, which was downwind of the westerly wind.





This is a truly ironic photograph. Here, trucks are taking snow that was produced by Lake Erie and are dumping it back into the lake.



As you can see, a TV crew treks across tremendous snow drifts to get some film footage of a C-130 bringing in badly needed men and equipment. The drifts are so deep that the crew avoids the roof of a car as they walk along.



Buffalo was not the only area hard hit by the storm. East of Lake Ontario, Watertown received over 5 feet of lake effect snow off a still unfrozen Lake Ontario. The strong winds piled the snow into gigantic drifts. A huge rotary plow operates in the background. According to reports, drifts in Jefferson county were "only" 18 feet high. (2/3/77 Watertown daily Times)



Red Cross volunteers traveling by snowmobile checked for trapped passengers in vehicles such as the one shown above. Nine bodies were found frozen to death during and shortly after the blizzard. A total of 23 deaths were attributed to the blizzard in the Buffalo area.
