They warned people to not try to go out in this because they didn’t have the resources or manpower to rescue everyone who was stranded.

I have family who lives in the hardest hit areas and they tell me that the warnings were up constantly.

But no, there’s always someone who considers the warnings fear porn, or it’s just another winter storm, a big nothing burger.

I guess they learned.

My family heeded the warnings, stocked up ahead of time, and rode out the storm just fine with plenty of food and water, safe in their own homes, car parked in the garage.

Same here. I’m listening to the “Buffalo Police, Fire and EMS” and “Cheektowaga Depew Lackawanna Fire” feeds on Broadcastify.

Currently the Cheektowaga Depew Lackawanna Fire feed, which covers 8ish depts in the area, has a working multi alarm fire, and 5 other calls. Everything from broken/frozen sprinklers, people trapped in houses, etc. FD is transportation people with minor issues, where possible, in the engines or ladders as no ambulances are available.

Maybe New York needs to ban assault blizzards since it’s their answer to regular crime.🤔🤔

In the old days people were more prepared. Always have a backup source for heat during the winter.

I heard that several suburban mayors declared that police and fire departments would NOT be responding for 48 hours, or longer, saying - “you are on your own.”

Is this true?

Where are the climate hysteria freaks? Maybe they could go out and help shovel snow.

While on other sites, Greg Abbott is being castigated for the few outages we've had over the past two days.

Lemme guess, no criticism of Buffalo mayor, he/she is a Democrat.

My dad ran the snowmobile rescue for all of Erie County during the blizzard of’77. Lots of people rescued from cars. All you could see was the antenna. Took one pregnant lady on our snowmobile to the hospital to have her baby.

After a volcano blew up in AD 536, the sun was obscured for nearly two years, only as bright as the moon at mid day.

This was when the Christian Emperor Justinian was trying to put the Holy Roman Empire back together.

Temperatures plunged, there were no harvests at all for 3 years. A decade later, the population of Europe was cut in half. Massive famines occurred all the way around the northern hemisphere from Ireland to Japan.

There were no records of what happened in North America or the Southern hemisphere, but tree ring and ice core data indicate this was a global event. Wars and pandemics broke out everywhere among the famine-weakened peoples.

Imagine the level of social collapse following such an event today. Buffalo is just a local, temporary disaster. Imagine the irony if, after all the man-caused global warming hoopla, the world were plunged into darkness, cold and crop failures.

Here is an excellent 16 minute video on the events following the AD 536 volcano:

More than 29,000 households still had no power, 20,000 of them in Buffalo alone.

In the meantime, the shivering souls who were in their third day without heat were resorting to huddling under blanket forts in their living rooms and warming their homes with pots of boiling water, if they were lucky enough to have gas-powered stoves.

Some of those who died were found frozen to death in their cars. Others were found on the ground, including a Buffalo man.

We had gas heat growing up in MA. It was a unit in the basement and came out of a 2 x 4 foot vent in the first floor. We used to take turns standing over it sometime. The bedrooms were on the second floor and there was an 18 inch square vent above the heater. Didn't work all that great so we kids had space heaters. I remember sleeping downstairs in a chair on some cold nights when there was no electric. Always had that gas heater as it didn't require electric to run so we always had heat in one spot of the house.

Kerosene heaters were popular too but cost too much to run anymore and I haven't seen a gas station that sells K in years.

Now they want to do away with gas altogether in places like NY, MA and force everyone on electric. Once that's done, expect hundreds or thousands to freeze every winter.

Most homes (dare I say, most Democrat homes) don’t even have a small generator which may make living possible.... but they’ll have 5 tv’s and the latest iPhones.

This was forecast.

Why didn’t Hochul call up the National Guard...

Note to folks: Waiting for the government to save you from yourself is a very bad idea, especially these days.
