We are in the middle of a blizzard. No visitors this year, no travelling, just "us"! Guys, I've never seen anything like this EVER. We have about 4-5 feet of snow and 60-70 mile an hour winds. Check out the photos..

Isn't THAT crazy? No clue how to clear it out either. Our snowblower broke yesterday due to the amount of snow and um...shoveling? Well, it ain't happening for ME anyway!

front door snow!

Certainly is crazy. We had 5" of snow here in England 2 weeks ago and I thought that was bad!

We used to regularly get 4-5ft of snow here in the French mountains, but last few years have had very little. So I think you got it all!

Stay warm, hope you have good neighbours or local council, and it will eventually melt!

Regularly?! Wow, so you are no stranger to the challenges that go with that amount of snow. We lost electricity and sadly over 28 people died in this "storm of the century" they are calling it.

yes, it sounds bad. We are over 2000ft altitude in the mountains so it’s more expected to have bad weather - still don’t particularly like it tho’!

Oh goodness gracious. I'm hoping you stay warm and you have enough food in. Wishing you the happiest Christmas and New Year. That's some impressive snow you have there. We're lucky to get a few inches. Flipping 'eck but that's deep.

Wow that's impressive!

Stay warm stay cosy , merry Christmas xxx

Wow, very impressive. We heard America was having a snow storm but not until you see your pictures do you appreciate how much snow fell. Take care and stay warm. Happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year x

Hope you had a safe and warm Christmas Day if a quiet one. Perhaps social life will be possible by the New Year!

Sorry, it took so long to reply but the internet was out, and (thank God) we were lucky enough to NOT lose our power like many, many others in our area did. With temperatures of 20-30 below zero windchills, no power means NO HEAT for many and sadly, some of our brave Buffalo NY citizens froze to death. No one could reach them due to the horrific weather conditions (not able to see let alone tread through impassable roads). Our electricity has been restored to all and now the National Guard is accessing the damage. We are used to tough winters in Buffalo NY but NOT so much with this amount of snow, along with 70-mile-per-hour winds, brutally cold temps, and no electricity, for nearly 3 full days. Mother nature certainly can be challenging but with all her severity she does bring some amazing photos...FLASH freeze (we dropped 40 degrees in 3 hours)
