Relentless lake-effect snow piles up in Pa., NY


ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — With snow piled up waist- and shoulder-high in communities downwind of the Great Lakes, Annette Miller took her usual walk in the woods with her golden retriever Wednesday in search of the solitude and vigor the season offers in spades in upstate New York.


"I love every mood of winter," the 61-year-old retired businesswoman said after tramping for nearly an hour along the Lake Ontario shore in suburban Rochester. "You adjust to it. I'm out in it, my dog gets me out. Otherwise you're stuck in the house for months."


For a fourth straight day, lake-fed storms pounded parts of northwestern Pennsylvania and upstate New York. Close to four feet of snow have fallen in the Syracuse area since the weekend and forecasters called for more snow into Thursday.

I don't miss shoveling so much snow off the roof that you no longer needed a ladder to get up and down from it, or the fights with the neighbors over pushing the mounds of snow back and forth across property lines, however digging a hole through the snow back to see your mailbox again was always fun :-)
