My buddy has lived there his entire life and said to me quote, I have never seen it snow this hard in 42 years. Their blizzard warning has been upped to 4-5 feet for downtown and the immediate suburbs

What a winter they’re having. It’s crazy to read a blizzard warning calling for 4-5 feet AND 70 mph winds.

Exactly! I lived through a few blizzard warnings in the lower Hudson valley that called for 1-3 feet PLUS the strong winds (typically in the 35-40mph range) from some of the epic nor’easters of the 90s and early 2000s, but certainly never 4-5 feet and 70 mph wind gusts.

Down here in the MA, we tend to get either WSW’s for heavy snow accumulations, or blizzard warnings for the wind but rarely do we see BWs for both the winds AND heavy snow accumulation - and def. nowhere near that magnitude of either.
