GO BULLS!!! UB alumni here. Can't say that I miss the snow (or losing every football game). But that was a crazy time.....used to love watching people getting blown over in the snow and wind in that wind tunnel they call North Campus.
for all the guys who say quit crying..... the MAJORITY of WNY is out of power. we were running low on water, and it looks like a hurricane came thru with the amount of trees that are down, due to heavy snow. thursday night was like the war of the worlds. ALLLLL night transistors outside were blowing up. i kept hearing power surges, and the sky kept glowing bright green, pink, red, ect like we were getting bombed. tons of destruction up here. those without generators are pretty screwed right now. my dads business was outa luck fri, and its looking the same for tomaro. every day a business has its doors closed costs alotttta $$$$$. and it looks like its gona be another wk before some people get power back. its pretty bad!
Yeah, talk about differences in weather, I work in Rochester and took the Camaro to work Thursday figuring it would be the last good day to drive it before the snow hit on friday, left work at 11:30pm, not a drop of anything in Rochester. Got to Brockport and the power was out, kept heading west to get home and a mile outside of b-port looked like a tornado hit, slush snow and branches all over the road and my biggest fear....snow plows dumping salt all over the damn road, now my car is covered. Went to put the winter car back on the road on friday but the DMV in Albion didn't have power so I was stuck driving the Z all weekend, time to break out my snowmobile I guess. 
where i live was the the edge of the storm, yet suffering all the negative effects. its been green here and looks outside to be as any normal fall day. on friday, however, we had over a ft of snow and it looked like a tornado hit. not even a mile south of me, didnt even get touched. further north, i know of people who got hit with over 2'. ive seen pictures, and it looks like the worst winter has to bring. rediculous.
