Strongest earthquake in 40 years startles Western New York | wgrz.com

Many Western New Yorkers were shook awake on Monday morning by an earthquake.

Earthquakes Canada reported that a 4.2 magnitude quake was detected in the Buffalo region.

2 On Your Side has heard from viewers from all the way in Wilson to Hamburg who felt the quake.

USGS reported that 3.8 magnitude earthquake was detected and was centered about 2 kilometers northeast of West Seneca around 6:15 a.m.

Ground Hog Day

Watching the live feed of Ground Hog Day, I am convinced that Punxsutawney Phil was actively encouraged to choose the Shadow scroll by the Ground Hog Club. Clearly it was cloudy and no shadow today.

As Americans, we should rise up against such a stolen prediction. I sure hope President Biden asks the US Supreme Court to review the actions of Punxsutawney Phil and overturn the results of his prediction for spring in six weeks. Americans deserve a fair prediction of how many weeks of winter remain.

So the Ground Hog Saw His Shadow

So the Ground Hog Saw His Shadow

Regardless, it means we are halfway through winter, and the coldest weather is beyond us. As long as the snow is relegated to the weekdays, when I am safely at work, I am fine with that. I just don’t want an ice storm and risk losing power.

Shadow

I look forward to more road trips and camping, once it warms up a bit more and there are places I can go that are snow-free. I thought about taking my truck to the car wash, but that didn’t happen because I figured it would be cold and I have  to probably get dirty this weekend.

No shadow, and lots of snow on the way the next few days.
