Snow totals reach nearly a foot and a half for areas south

Lake effect snow event since late Tuesday night has many areas shoveling out of more than a foot of snow in Western New York.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Several places in Chautauqua County saw more than a foot of snow from the recent snow event, including north Jamestown at 15.3", Celoron at 16.5", and Cherry Creek at 11".

And from north Jamestown up into Ellicott and Gerry, nearly a foot and a half of snow fell since late Tuesday night.

And it's a change in pace during this season that has been well below average with snow so far this winter. So some folks there say while it's a lot of work cleaning all the snow up, they don't mind it too much.

"I've been here all my life...getting older now so it's harder to get out here and shovel," a Jamestown resident said. "It's pretty, but it's a lot of work."

"I don't mind winter at all," a Gerry resident said as he worked on shoveling his driveway for a second time during the most recent snow event. "I enjoy it." 

And as lake effect snow goes, while north Jamestown saw almost 16 inches of snow, east Jamestown received 8 inches.
