This package contains clips from multiple locations in order beginning with night shots in Newburgh, New York, afternoon and evening shots in Riverdale, Pompton Lakes, and Oakland New Jersey, then finally early afternoon shots from the I-80/I-280 corridor in Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey.

In Newburgh, New York most cars were buried in deep snow along with other vehicles stuck in the deep snow. In addition to this, the snow was deep enough that police officers were having difficulty patrolling and we encountered one officer who needed some help with their vehicle getting stuck in the snow. The fire department responded to a vehicle fire near the 100 block of Gidney Avenue and arrived to find an engine compartment on fire which was quickly extinguished.

Further south down I-87 in northern New Jersey we documented extremely heavy snowfall with snowfall rates somewhere near 3” per hour at times which left residents no choice but to venture out in the worst of the storm and clear the deep snow from their driveways and sidewalks or risk not being able to get out of their homes.

Finally, in the Parsippany-Troy Hills area of New Jersey, travel along Interstate 80 was treacherous with numerous traffic collisions & vehicles stuck in the snow or abandoned altogether.

    I live in Florida,(born&raised),& this looks like a freezin' ass nightmare to me!! And cars are driving on snowy roads with traffic lights out& it's still snowing, adding more danger to the roads. In my opinion, it seems like visibility isn't safe enough to attempt being on the roads!😲 No thanks!! I'll take the hurricanes here,& the wandering alligators,,& random sinkholes,& brutal summer humidity any day over the freezing, frightening weather&gray days in the snowy states! Snow is "pretty", but that's it! I enjoy the sunshine& green on trees year around,& not having many cold days during the year! I love viewing the beauty of the heavy snow from the videos posted, but tgat's enough for me!😏 Everyone in snowy states, be careful driving in those conditions,& enjoy the weather if you like winter weather.πŸ˜‰πŸ‘

    While having compassion for the extra work folks back east have right now, when they get hammered we have a milder time here in North Idaho. So thanks for that.

    People need to make sure the exhaust for their furnace is not covered by snow. My daughter in-law comes out the side of her home
  • Looks like a scene from 'The Day After Tomorrow' esp with that guy walking up the hill in the middle of the street from 2:30-2:34.
