Re: Re: bllizzard in Buffalo NY- OTThe main portion of the actual city of Buffalo did not get as much snow, but the outlying areas got dumped on. I can totally see where it would cause so much trouble within the city when that happens. Back in 1991 we had a major ice storm that paralyzed our city for up to 3 weeks in some areas. My husband lived in the inner city where there wasnt so many trees....when he got up, he had cable, power and no idea of what had been going on all night. My parents house, on the border of the city/suburbs, lost power at 330am and forget about cable (not that it mattered since we didnt have power). The funny thing was that b/c the opposite side of our street was fed by a different transformer that was unaffected by trees they never lost power. The beauty of this was that between all the neighbors we had enough extension cords to run from one house to another and

nobody on our stree t actually lost any food.Annthis is a video someone took the morning after the ice storm...he drove to work during a state of emergency. He started out in the fire district where I used to volunteer. One of the things that really struck alot of the firefighters is that despite so much damage to the trees, very few actually fell on houses...the vast majority fell away from the structures. One theory is that there was just enough heat coming off the structures to keep the ice thinner on that side. In this video, there was not actually any snow on the ground. All the white shown on the trees was ice. It was about 1/4 to 1/2inch thick depending where one was. This is kind of long, but it really shows how badly the area was hit.

I wondered when it became a Buffalo whatever goes on there group. Honestly, I liked some things about that place, and completely detested others.
