I lived up there several years ago and learned real fast that you plan for these events. I had a good furnace but I also had a Liberty wood stove. Wonderful heat …I split wood during the summer so I had more than enough for the winter. Late fall we made many pans of Lasagna and casseroles from Sheppards Pie to mac and cheese and we loaded up on frozen steaks..pork chops.bacon..sausage and so on We’ve been baking our own bread for years so eggs and other basics was all we’d get when a big winter event was looming... Had Lots of beer..vodka. Wine..Deck of cards..trivia pursuit..Good times no matter what! Miss my neighbors!
Buffalo has a winter target on it's back normally, but this year is something else.
I couldn't do it. I live in down state NY in the lower Catskills and it's bad enough here. But that western part of the state with lake effect snow would do me in. Too old for that.
im in south buffalo/lackawanna and its still coming down like crazy over here
For those who don't understand the weather here and questioning why people are on the road. Lake effect can be a bit unpredictable in where it will fall. You may think, "The south towns are getting lake effect now, I have time to get out and get a few things or pick up my spouse from work." Nope. That narrow band of lake effect can move northward into the metro area swiftly and it may trap you right in the middle of it. What I mean by "trap" is the snow fall and wind will block your view of the road and all you can do is stop and wait... and wait.... and wait... next thing you know, you're getting rescued after 30 hours in your car.
White outs in the area while driving make it so you can't even see in front of your car. You're literally blinded.
The rest of the people out on the road getting trapped are usually idiots who think they can get through it.
This is not a fluke though. It WAS forecasted the blizzard winds and below zero temps were coming. People need to stay home. PERIOD. Storm chasers also die being in weather situations that dictate they stay home as well! Senseless
@@Og-Judy I'm not defending the behavior. I'm explaining the logic as to why people take a chance on getting in the car to do whatever they need to do. Forecasts for this area tend to be wrong as many times as they are right. I've been here well over 50 years and predicting the weather in Western NY during the Winter is often times flat out wrong.
The county has made efforts to curtail it - namely putting up automatic barriers at the onramps to the thruway. Once a weather emergency is declared, those barriers drop.
It's the story of the boy who cried wolf - except the boy is the weatherman. It's a running joke in these parts when storms come through. It's either going to be a few inches, or a few feet.
@@Og-Judy Total CGI, FAKE snow, FAKE weather, all done in a big studio, great FAKE entertainment, we all love the comedy
I live in SW Ontario, and lake effect usually comes off Huron at 90 deg to it with the prevailing winds and it doesn't amount to very much and swings wildly, giving us maybe a foot of snow, or swings and gives our neighbouring towns a foot, and us nothing. Buffalo, at the tip of lake Erie is in a precarious spot, if the wind blows along Erie's length, its in trouble.
@@itchyomalley Your right of course. But there are two reasons why the fire arms are inaccurate. The first is there were very few replicates available to the movies at the time. The second is that those that were available could not always be counted on to be reliable in performance with the constant re shoots that goes along with making movies
I have been stuck in a few blizzards, as I live way up in northern Sweden, but this seems awful
and how are those with an electric car doing? It is not enough to fill up a can of fuel,
they must be recharged if they are without power.
Not that many around yet from what I've seen and I'm betting they're in their garages. Lol
I don't know how the rest of the world thinks about electric cars, but in my mind I think of them as summer cars. I'm not ready for one. I'll stick with my little hippie granny hatchback that has a 10.6 gallon tank that usually gives me 20-50mpg depending on the kind of driving I'm doing. It's definitely not meant for deep snow either. But that's okay by me. No longer commuting. Wish I could see more snow plows out where these poor people are stranded. I don't understand that at all. 😌🙏
Driving isn't a problem we have right now. There is 2 feet (0.6 meters) of snow in the roads. I don't need gas or a charge because I'm not going anywhere lol.

The only reason that Tahoe was stuck was because someone still had the economy friendly Michelins on it from the dealer. If you live in Upstate NY folks you have to have all terrain or dedicated snow tires and you'll be fine. All weather radials are not going to cut it in that mess. You all have lived here long enough.
Yeah that's crazy to have Radials in that..
@@Outdooradventure23 all tires today are radial tires these were just all weather radials instead of winter radials
We missed this storm out here in the West. The Rocky Mountains kept it east of us. Prayers to those affected by it.
для США апокалипсис а для России просто обычная зима. В Сибири вот такая картина, примерно 6 месяцев в году. При этом жизнь не останавливается , ходит транспорт люди едут на работу а дети ходят в школу.
Even after those fire trucks are free, they will be out of service for a few days until the water in the tanks thaws back out
I fear that here must be a number of stranded motorists there. I saw in Reed Timmer’s video that you and he helped some people stuck in an idling car in the middle of a street get to safety in your truck. They were in danger not only from the cold but from carbon monoxide that would come on if their exhaust was blocked by the fast-building drifts. Very dangerous.
They knew in advance the snowstorm was coming. I don't understand why people get out on the roads. Yesh it's Christmas Eve. BUT your safety and welfare are WAY more important. Stay TF home. People act like it was a surprise. 🙄
Hi Catherine, we have rescued 7 people so far. Plus we gave a couple stranded police officers a ride to a police station, pulled out a firefighter stranded on a four wheeler trying to get to one of the many stuck engines. Brought a homeless man struggling with the cold to a shelter. We helped a traveler who got stuck on Friday that went out looking for a store to get food before becoming disoriented, getting lost and his feet were frozen (he was in tennis shoes). We pulled out a food truck 3 different times trying to help them get to a hotel out of food with 600 people. Our hotel has a conference room full of stranded people that managed to get to the hotel. I have never seen anything like this. People in dire need in just this small area where we can get around in a downtown area. My fear is hearing about the people that couldn’t get help all though the metro area. There must be hundreds or even thousands stuck or stranded. Most snow storms people are stuck and just dealing with inconvenience, this one is life threatening.

I think if the intake or exhaust is blocked the engine dies much before the cabin would be filled with carbon monoxide as the exhaust obvoiusly isn't directly going inside.
Wooooooooooooooooooow 👍 😍 it's a amazing
OMG😱😳😨😧❄☃️⛄🌀

This needed to be all dumped on NYC! Good luck Folks!
Did these fire companies install chains before heading out. You would think it would be standard procedure there.
Given the history no snocats and such?
Tesla why?

I still haven't seen that.

where are all the Buffalo's? ?
Hiding at home criticizing China.
They should issue police, ambulance and other services snowmobiles to get around on for community support. Won't be the last time they get snowed under
Buy Crampons for your boots shoes so you can walk on the icy pavements/roads safely - buy online or borrow some .
Oh well, so sad, too bad.
at least you guys can see something on that side we still can't see CHIT two feet in front of us..

I figured they would drain fire trucks during bad weather and keep some inside with water incase of a fire
The bay is heated and keeps the water from freezing. Running the pump heats the water while on scene
After a week's worth of weather warnings everyone knew this storm was coming so what did some people do get in their cars and go try and drive in it.
For those who don't know, Buffalo averages LESS snow per winter than Rochester and Syracuse. Syracuse averages the most. Not this year!
This year, I’m certainly glad to be in Rochester and not Buffalo. It’s definitely cold and windy here, but nothing remotely like that

You must be too young to know better. Buffalo is the snow capital of the US.
@@NapkinEdStern Buffalo is known for getting epic snowstorms. That's for sure. However, they don't average higher than other cities in upstate NY.
@@Sean-mclaughlin Buffalo isn't considered upstate NY. It's Western NY, even though the non-natives call it "upstate". Oswego, which is upstate, gets tons of snow though.
So glad the Governor called up those 52 Guardsman for Erie County. They are obviously making a huge difference.
How'd you like to be trapped in an electric vehicle out there? Batteries HATE cold weather and they're not fond of generating heat.
Very GOOD point GARY, THANK you.
See where all that melted arctic ice is going now.
Isn’t there record arctic sea ice coverage this year? And Antarctic
Essentially, yes. That’s basically what is happening, in a roundabout kind of way

There is a driving ban in Western NY, so why are you out on the road?
Some people evacuated here, because their power went out.
Because there are people who don't seem to grasp dire situations also means THEM and not just everyone else
Because it's illegal to ban traffic. Don't be a sheep.
And there was not a ban in W NY
THANKS TO THE WEATHER, I CAN'T EVEN GO TO MY FAMILY HERE
You being safe will be the best gift to your family
I love mother nature! Keep going keep going, I'm getting more popcorn!
Почему так мало людей на улицах в рождество?
Will you did hear Mitch McConnell saying Ukraine is U.S number one priority.
Break out the Walter snow fighters!
Stay home. Be part of the solution.
Leave home. Be part of the problem.
What I don't understand is, why are there no snow plows running in any of these videos of storm chasers I've viewed in the past two days? I'm originally from upstate NY. And I swear it seemed like they were running just about 24/7 back in the day. Especially in the inner cities. Merry Christmas Everyone.🎄 Hopefully everyone watching these videos is safe and warm. God Bless. ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏
They pulled the plows out because of visible issues and road clogged with cars
I believe it because there were so many abandoned vehicles, too many hidden under snow, and the sheer volume of snow meant they couldn’t keep up at the beginning
@@charleshaynes613 Total CGI, FAKE snow, FAKE weather, all done in a big studio, great FAKE entertainment, we all love the comedy
They don't run plows any more until the storm is over. Gotta save that $$$!

When you realize it's a really screwed up situation.
Carry a hair dryer in your car to melt the snow
😂
Useless fire trucks, no 4x4 or 6x6
Апокалипсис, все как любят снимать американцы. Какой вид снял, людей нет, брошенные машины на дороге, разрушения и порванные флаг страны. Они не знали прогноза? зачем ехать в такую погоду и бросать машины на проезжей части, будут мешать снегоуборочной технике.
May God give him power over their weapons and their plans and over all their leaders, especially Bush and Clinton
Ok, then, this is extreme even for an area that gets 110 inches of snow per season routinely and calls it "winter". But, by all means, let's not have the media even mention the fact that these events are exactly what global warming models have predicted, i.e., changes in local weather that produce increasingly severe weather events.
So this is a prediction not actual 🤔 this only can be compared to other weather events in the past when weather started to be measured. Humans don't know what weather events happened past that.
@@dirtydiesels3110 No, what this means is the observations match the predictions that arise from the theory. There's another word for it: it's called science.
Lol - no. These events are the opposite of what has been predicted for 60 years with regard to global warming. I get that you kids have been trained with this nonsense of "all extreme weather is caused by your SUV" BUT - in reality it's always the wettest, driest, hottest, coldest and most windy somewhere on the planet every day. Cherry picking and pretending your tiny sample set of data points is "climate change" is pseudoscience at best. Fraud at worst.
The AMO is shifting into its cold phase as it did in the 70s, and the solar cycle is extremely weak - so the jet stream favors meridional flow over zonal flow. That is why you are seeing these walls of polar cooled air flowing into temperate regions.
It's not "climate change" it's the normal long-term cycles of an oscillating system.
I remember in 1988 being very concerned - listening to James Hansen tell me that by the year 2000, there would be entire countries wiped off the map by sea level rise. The Maldives would be gone. Lower Manhattan would be under 20 feet of water. There would be worldwide famine that killed 4 billion people.
Those were the predictions.
None of that came to pass. Instead, you have Greta in Sweden ( a place where the sea level is falling due to isostatic rebound ) telling us "how dare you" while she jets around the globe pretending to do something useful. Her real purpose is just to be a propaganda tool to deindustrialize the West.
Meanwhile, China starts a new Coal Power Plant every month.
You people have been trained to accept a paeudo-religiious scam.
@@rickyrayrosenberg420 "60 years ago". Any chance you have some more recent information regarding global climate modeling? Yes, I recall that, at one time, there were predictions that global cooling would be taking place but the most recent IPPC data is more accurately predictive. And I am not "cherry picking" anything.

Don’t put your trust in three season tires spend the extra $800 and buy real winter tires guys… Come on get with the program year after year you think you learn your lesson.❄️🛞
I went outside earlier and saw a snow drift of about 10+ feet. Tires are irrelevant in cases like this.
@@afenismama
By the way, 99% of the time people drive, don’t encounter 10’ snow drifts…(irrelevant)
99% of the time people drive encounter icy/ normal
