Advisory for latest weekend storm extended, with more than a foot of snow possible by 9 a.m. Sunday | Juneau Empire
Storm that began Friday night continues pattern that led to record snowfall in January.
Yikes!!!!
Winter 78/79 when I lived in Western Illinois. Many country roads had drifted like this. I drove thru these "valleys" in a tractor trailer rig with a tractor on the trailer. Was a good thing. I stuffed the tractor into the drift and had to unload the tractor to pull me out. Fun stuff.
And then here in NE Illinois. Blizzard of Feb 2011. We fondly referred to it as Snowmageddon. This was my sidewalk. Drift started out around 4 ft before it settled and compressed a bit. While I didn't do it, others in the area shared photos on FB where their garage door looked like mine, where they had bored holes in the drift and put their beer to stay cold. Brilliant!!!

That's just crazy. We have friends that live in KY now. But used to live near Buffalo. They have pictures of the lake effect snow they would get. Here in Illinois we measure in inches. In Buffalo, when they get one of those lake effect snows.... they measure in feet. Lots of feet.

Yet there's 4 - 5 inches on the house roof.
The house in the back seems to have less than a foot on the roof.
Are your sure we're not seeing drift illusions?? We have roof discrepancies here, 5. Lol
