Yeah, I'm a little skeptical. Right on the lake, and 30" is a record? My parents talk about getting 8 feet in blizzards upstate, back in the 60s.

I've seen the pictures. Looked miserable.

It is a record for snow falling on Dec 25. More may have fallen on other days.

Depends on where one is - some “alleys” prone to lots of snow and others not so much - foothills of the mountains help route it around some areas. Been through the big ones that ran through the Buffalo/Rochester area and some were really impressive even to those “used to” such.
