two years and we had only one real nasty storm--of course, I was in Ann Arbor and we didn't get the lake effect storms that the western part of the state would get. But come to Syracuse where each year we win the Golden Snowball award for the most snow among the cities of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse & Albany. And go north of Syracuse a few miles where the good folks in Mexico, Oswego and other towns in the same area get hit with 200 inches of snow or more from the Ontario lake effect.
