Erie Got Some Snow...

[hatsbo]

Over 5 feet in many areas in about 48 hours. Actually wins this year's White Christmas award with 36" on Christmas day alone. I was in high school when we moved to Erie from Boston. It snowed every day for a couple weeks, people don't believe me when I tell that story, maybe they will now. In a gesture of friendship on the first night there, the neighborhood gang threw snowballs at our house. I made a good impression on them when I went out to meet them while they were in the act.

Lake Effect Snow is a bitch, someone would have to pay me in the 6-figure range to even think about living there.........and research is showing that with a warmer world then the likelihood of these record setting Lake Effect Snowfalls will increase (at least in the short term)

• The paradox of lake effect snow: global warming could bring the Great Lakes more of it, at least for a while
• Increasing Great Lake–Effect Snowfall during the Twentieth Century: A Regional Response to Global Warming?

Actually, I liked it there, Great skiing, snowshoeing, all winter sports. In the summer Presque Isle State Park was the place to be, nice bay and I believe 20 miles of sandy beaches. Great lagoons as well, we kayaked and boated in them.

Snow for a cripple sucks.........it's why I moved from Kentucky to Florida.

In Willkillya County they would put some bog tires on it and run it through the mud

We lived not 60 miles from there so we know what the snow can be like coming off the lake.

Grew up about an hour south/south east from dreary erie and couldn't wait to get out of there and head to FSU and never looked back. Hell it was overcast and gray all the damn time there.

What famous FSU football player came for Erie?

Guilty as charged

Edit: In fact, I don't want to live anywhere that I would need big knobby tires like he has
