Watch Storm Roll Over Lake Erie and Into Buffalo in Crazy Time Lapse Video

The pictures of all the snow in Buffalo are crazy enough, but wait til you see the storm roll over Lake Erie in this time lapse video.

A state of emergency has been declared in several counties, including Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie, Franklin, Genesee, Herkimer, Jefferson, Lewis, Oswego and Wyoming. Governor Cuomo deployed the National Guard to affected areas Tuesday afternoon and activated statewide Emergency Operations Centers.

'This storm may persist until Friday morning with the potential for another two feet of snow. New Yorkers in these areas should exercise extreme caution, and stay off the roads until conditions are clearer and safer' Cuomo said.

Just take a look at the conditions on the New York State Thruway which remains closed IN BOTH DIRECTIONS between Exit 46, Rochester, and Exit 61, Ripley.

 
Travel bans are in effect in Lancaster, West Seneca, South Buffalo, Cheektowaga and Hamburg. During a travel ban, driving for any reason is prohibited. Where would they go? Most can't even find their cars, never mind travel.
