They walk. Likely from OP. Or drive snowmobiles on trails.

Yeah, it is. It's a bad weather event. The type of event nobody here tries to drive in because we respect Mother Nature. Once you have enough firsthand glimpses of her power in winter, you don't try your luck or you end up sorry...or dead. Like the 47 people who thought it was smart to be out in the Blizzard last year.

That's how lake bands work sometimes tho. The bands aren't even well organized yet. Wait til the overnight hours.

Browns just folded once they got down by double digits

That's true, but the intensity of the lake bands in large part depends on the difference between the air temp and water temp and when the water temp is that warm it allows more moisture to be carried and dumped.

Yup, denying it is pointless at this point. Last year's blizzard was literally the worst recorded blizzard in US History. I doubt us or anyone else gets one like that anytime soon.

Flacco is imploding. Back to back pick 6's. THOSE INTs are a problem.

Warm winters does not mean record warm lake temperatures. That is a factor starting with the summer and continual warmth thru winter. The fact we are continually seeing record warm lake temps underlies the fact we continuously keep having top 20(mostly top 10) warm years year after year. Here is a pretty good over/under to go by. It's increased from 22.2" to 31.0" over the past day.

Do you understand the implications of continual record warm lake temperatures during the events over the last several years? BTW, the lake temperature when the storm started was 42 degrees, a record for this time of year again. Lake snow with record warm temps will not "fall short". Please understand how this works before posting how so many times it's fallen short. If anything it's likely to over deliver.

Excuse me? They are pretty excellent actually. As long as you know where to get your info from. NWS Buffalo or Donn Paul Forget unwatchable. Hundreds would have died attempting to get to the game. There is a pretty good idea of where and how much. And if anything these totals usually end up being lower than actual ones.

And then Wednesday and Thursday there is potential for another multi-foot Lake Snow Event. I told people it was going to be a rough week in WNY. How many have you been to in the middle of a 31" snow event with whiteout conditions? I'll tell you how many you or any other NFL fan has been to. Zero.

How many other NFL cities get 31 inches of snow with whiteout conditions and 50 mph winds? Can you name one? In most places that would be an all-time historic storm they would be talking about for the next century and they'd be shut down for at least a week. Here it is just a normal "bad" lake effect event and we just need a day to plow out.

Expected snow totals in Buffalo now up to 31.0" Check NOAA/NWS Buffalo's website. https://www.weather.gov/buf/Winter

Agree, unless the dome is being built over half of WNY it wouldn't matter Lake Effect is a different animal. I call it "Angry Snow" because at times it's snowing so hard the snow falling creates updrafts that cause flakes next to it to "fall" upwards.

Buffalo expected snow totals upped to near 30" now. How would a dome help when this has nothing to do with playing in these conditions? Literally the only thing that would help is if you built a dome over WNY.

Thanks...I confused the two players

Oh crap...nevermind, I got them confused

It's so funny to see people who probably have never seen something like this in their life commenting on it. They are clueless For 90% of the commenters complaining, this would be the worst winter weather they have ever been a part of. This would have shut down where they are at for a week. It's only keeping us down for a day. Expected snow totals just got updated to near 30" for Buffalo.

At least they won't know who to prepare for tho.

I don't believe Shavers ever got activated off IR and his window closed meaning he is done for the year.

OK bro... Either you don't live in this area or you don't know how snow plows work during these conditions.

2+ feet is not a few inches. Mix that with alcohol and whiteout conditions and that's a recipe for disaster for both people driving and pedestrians trying to leave the stadium. We get it dude...you are the biggest badass that was out barechested walking around during the blizzard last year the entire time and when they found you buried under the snow you were building igloos and doing snow angels.

Most people are not going to have big trucks and chains just laying around collecting dust to use for these situations. Let's be real

As expected we are edging up in snowfall totals ..Buffalo expected total went from 22.2" to 23.1"
