JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) With a state of emergency already declared, doesn’t that basically ban “unnecessary “ travel? If that’s the case would going to the game become illegal?? I think the state and local governments could force the NFL’s hand.

I was thinking of either going to the game or launching myself at the intakes for a float down the Niagara River. Leaning the river. That sounds as if it's going to be postponed too Monday. 3 p.m. Would be perfect. No doubt that the lawyers are involved with the lawsuit implications.

Simon Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 fwiw, now that we're about 24hrs out, it looks a bit less impactful than it has the last couple days. NWS leaning toward a solution that has the heaviest band oscillating North of Orchard Park during the earlier part of Sunday. Never any guarantees with lake effect, but a step in the right direction. 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 The snow band is the big problem. The latest i’ve seen has the band up in the northern Erie and Niagara county early Sunday morning. But it starts shifting back towards Buffalo and OP by later in the morning and pretty much over the stadium areas during the start , slowly moving more southward. So maybe the late 3rd and 4th Qtrs has less snow and better visibility 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro Nimbus Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 There are alot of conflicting reports out there. Some say the snow band will be just north of OP, while others ay there will be a band over the stadium at kickoff. One thing is for certain, it will be very windy, like the Pats game a few years ago.

I've seen orchard park issue travel bans for less, it will be interesting what happens if they issue a travel ban right before the game starts. Will they play in an empty stadium ?

Draconator Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Limeaid said: Are snow plows necessary? My BIL works for state on snow plow shift in night (12 hour) shift. Point A: If the county is under a travel advisory, or possibly a travel ban, what's going to happen when a car full of fans is like 5 miles from the stadium, and local police or the Erie County Sheriff pulls them over, gives them a ticket, and then tells them to turn the car around and go back from where they came from? Point B: My son-in-law also works for New York State driving a snow plow. Plows are necessary even for a rescue mission. Because during last year's blizzard, he drove a plow from Batavia to Angola with his boss following right behind with a van. They rescued people stranded on the thruway during the blizzard. 40 people and one dog to be exact. They would load up the plow and van with people, drive back to the Cheektowaga barn, make sure those being brought were inside and safe, and go right back out. He worked a 25-hour shift that day.

I’m not commenting on whether the game should happen, but how do declare a state of emergency without moving the game at the same time? Don’t declare the state of emergency in that case. The ironic part is the storm being on a weekend, the majority of “unnecessary” travel would be for the game. The rest of WNY wants to be home watching.
