Feet of snow to bury Buffalo as potentially historic lake-effect event looms A winter storm watch has been issued for parts of western New York ahead of a long-duration lake-effect snow event that could produce potentially record-setting amounts of 3 to 6 feet. By Renee Duff, AccuWeather meteorologist Published Nov. 15, 2022 11:52 AM EST | Updated Nov. 16, 2022 11:27 AM EST AccuWeather meteorologists say that the fiercest lake-effect snow event yet this season — and potentially in years — will ramp up downwind of the Great Lakes late this week and bury some locations with feet of snow, grinding travel to a halt and potentially stamping new marks in the weather history books.

While there are some things I miss about northern Michigan, Lake Effect isn't one of them.

I remember one very similar storm when I was in my teens. I was scheduled to take a Greyhound from home in Cleveland to visit my sister and brother-in-law in Binghampton N.Y. Got hit by a "lake effect" the day before I was to leave and there were no busses going east for about three days. I was on the first bus headed east along I-90 on the way to Rochester, NY, to change busses on my way to their place. As we rolled along I-90, the wall of snow alongside the roadway was piled higher than the top of the bus. We then pulled off the interstate to head to the terminal in downtown Rochester where I was to change busses. As we rolled into downtown you could see the snow piled so high on the sidewalk that it reached the windowsills of the apartments on the second floors. There were 'tunnels' dug through the wall of snow to get to the shop doors.
That folks should provide a better understanding of what a "lake effect snow storm" blowing ashore after traveling across Lake Erie is capable of.
