Only in Buffalo....

Only in Buffalo can you go from -20 degree weather one week to 60 degrees and
ice jams


and flash flooding the next.


Yes
Flash flooding AND
River Flooding Watches AND
High wind warning AND
Winter Storm warning....ALL IN ONE NIGHT!!!

They have a saying here...if you don't like the weather in Buffalo..wait a minute.
I'm beginning to believe it
Now..if only we could make requests

It certainly wouldn't be this...

apparently it got so cold in 1911 Niagara Falls froze over and people could walk on it...crazy!

I don't care how cold it is - I would never dare walk on Niagra Falls! Aaaah! I thought that saying was for Utah too, but after reading more and more of you weather posts - Buffalo is definitly more extreme! LOL.

Holy COW!! Those pictures ... ALL OF THEM are remarkable. I've never seen or even imagined an "ice jam" before. So weird. Flash floods are scary-ramma. Stay safe!

Uh . . . that is why you've got to move out here to Cali. The craziest weather we've had is when they told us we had a chance of thunder and lightning. That NEVER happens. Yeah, we might get an earthquakes, but that is really it. Come on . . . just do it!
