13 Staggering Photos Of Buffalo's Historic Snowstorm

Snowfall in Buffalo broke records this week, with the city getting more snow in two days than it typically does in a year.

More than six feet of snow has barricaded people in their homes and stranded them in their cars. The weight of the snow has already caused 30 roofs to collapse, and 13 people have died from either exposure or heart attacks.

Buffalo residents aren't usually fazed by snow. But the severity of this storm has caught many by surprise.

"This is western New York; we're used to it," Jack Fasanella, 62, a lifelong Buffalonian, told the New York Times. "But this is the worst I've ever seen. Even worse than the blizzard of '77."

The photos out of Buffalo are staggering.
