Buffalo716 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Blizzard warnings all over. The wind is gusting and visibility is down to nothing. 0 degrees in Buffalo right now with 30 mph winds. Feels like -25 with lake effect coming down stay warm and safe
mead107 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Cold near Saratoga. 11 out now with winds up to 30mph. -3 tonight. Winds drop to 12 mph after midnight.
Marv's Neighbor Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 On the bright side, Lake Erie is freezing over, so less "lake effect" snow, the rest of the way. Also, the freakin groundhog can't see his shadow in white out conditions. 1

Feels like -25 with lake effect coming down stay warm and safe My "weather station" shows wind gusts up to 30 MPH. Too far east to be expecting very much snow. Looks like Buffalo down into Dunkirk could receive quite a bit of snow. Gonna get the Sloppy Joe's going here in a half hour. I also was thinking about when I took meteorology at Cornell for an elective. I took that so I could avoid university physics. Anyhow, we did weather observations on the top of Bradfield. Good thing that the worst that ever happened was a rapidly developing T-Storm in April. I would hate to be up there today but they probably don't go outside anymore versus the good old days.
\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 WHAT A BUNCH OF PANSIES! In my day, I walked EIGHT MILES to school every day in three feet of snow blah blah blah............... [disintegrates into old-guy talk]

The Senator Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Right now temp is minus 3 at the airport, with gusts up to 43 mph, higher in some places. Wind chill is about 30 below. Only one flight arrived in Buffalo today, and only one departure wasn’t cancelled - to Atlanta. Even Gov. Cuomo’s plane couldn’t land here - it was diverted to Niagara Falls. Blizzard warning til 1 am, driving bans all over. Erie County and City of Buffalo have both declared State of Emergency. I don’t know why anyone lives here - when my dad passes, I’m moving to Maui. .

Almost anywhere you go your can find a “Buffalo pizza and wing joint”. It’s not a loss, it’s an opportunity! ?

They aren’t the same... the dough is what makes our pie special... and the dough is special because our water My best friend sold his pizzeria up here and tried opening one in Florida... same recipe and everything... the dough just doesn’t rise the same he thought about getting water shipped to him from Buffalo but it wasn’t feasible wings are doable 1
Augie Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I just checked the webcam from in front of Panos (on Elmwood I think?). THAT looks like winter as I remember it. No wonder we have a certain bond.

Never been to them, so can’t comment on how the pizza compares to Jeff and Lori Jacobi’s Casa di Pizza In Buffalo. 1

It may not be quite the same, but I know some places do pretty darn good. Casa di Pizza in the Sarasota, FL area has very good pizza and wings. There were some others, but they were the best, IMO. Taco Mac is a pretty big franchise out of Atlanta which sells more wings than tacos (long story) and we have a Duffs not too far away. The Buffalo pizza joints I’ve found here try....but are certainly disappointing. 1 minute ago, Buffalo716 said: Mmmmm panos! Yes elmwood Mmmmm, and tonight......BRRRR!

Never heard of them when I lived in WNY, but they have photos of the original location up there. Full of Bills and Sabres stuff. They seem to have a nice following and many seem to be ex-WNYers. I’m strangely captivated by the Panos webcam. I love warm weather, but I really miss a dose of that from time to time.
