Hell yes 26.9 inches of snow in New York. Thats a shitload of snow... took me and my dad 4 hours to shovel it all, and now my back is killing me. So any of you in the East Coast get this  much snow? Or have any of you anywhere gotten this much snow ever?

lmao:

Heh, there's usually a good amount more snow than that on the ground where I live. I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Send some of that snow my way.  Here in Oklahoma, it's been t-shirt weather most of the winter.

23,9 inches? That ain't much. Last year here in Helsinki we easily had triple that for a few months.

Up north in Lapland is where you get lots of snow.

lmao well 23.9 inches is crazy for a city like New York. (I mean a power outage for a minute costs the economy like a million dollars.) And guess what the mayor made us goto school anyway. I mean its record snow and we have to goto school. But the funny thing is that today the temperature was in its 60's or something so most of the snow is gone.

I thought that the USA doesn't get much snow seeing as it's hot in alot of states there. We usually get some snow so we can have snowball fights but not this year.

I wish I lived in New York or one of the northern states, I like the cold better than hot weather.

The only way to get snow 'ere in Spain is to go up the nearby mountain, the Sierra Nevada.

Good lord, we were supposed to get about 10 inches, but we got away with not even 3, my wife's family lives up in Buffalo and got about 8 inches of snow. That storm cell was heading right towards us, I'm glad we didn't get alot.

You guys in New York are lucky it was snow, and not rain.  27+ inches of snow is like... 40+ inches of rain.

There's never snow where I live (Melbourne). If you want snow, you have to drive about 5 hours into the mountains, and when you're up there skiing, you can fall off a cliff and die so easily (you're basically skiing where 1 metre to each side of you there is a 100 metre drop, and NO BARRIER lol).
