Here are a few pics of very, very serious snow....
Kind of overwhelms the equipment...

What can one say. OMG, is that some snow.

Pitty those folks when it thaws out, going to be some floods, they’ll get a double wammy.

Unreal,for the folks out that way,may southern winds bring warmer temps and blue sky.

These pictures seem very familiar to me. Seems I recall them going around in e-mails a year or two ago as somewhere in Norway. If you want to see actual pictures of the Oswego, NY area, just Google "Oswego, NY snowstorm pictures" and you will get plenty, but done that look like these.

yeah thats what i was thinking too.....seen them before

I got them in e-mail and posted em here. I think it possibly could be Oswego. Given 11 feet and wind blown snow definitely a true possibility of the pictures being real.........

I've seen these photos many times before. I have seen these, I think, as far back as 2001. I seem to recall something about these being taken in Canada somewhere.

Somewhere in Labrador, they surfaced three or four years ago on a government website.

I can't believe I received a Bogus Pics in my e-mail... Never happens now does it?? The timimng was right to believe it was Oswego and Oswego probably doesn't look much better.........Viewer be wary.......

I wondered how long it would take them; Snopes has the photos shown above described as the Oswego snowfall on their site. No new info, really, of what has already been said here. Just thought I would post it.
