Since it began early Friday morning, the lake effect storm has dumped several feet of snow in some areas. The snow fell at such an unrelenting pace that street crews have been unable to keep pace. Hundreds of holiday travelers were stranded on major highways Friday like i-90 and had to abandon their cars.

One report from southwest Erie logged 30 inches of snow -- as of 10:30 p.m. Friday, before the lake-effect dumping continued overnight.

Erie County is under a disaster emergency, the city has enacted a snow emergency and PennDOT has restrictions on parts of interstates, 79, 90 and 86.

A lake-effect snow warning remains in place for Erie County through Tuesday, and a lot more snow could fall across Erie County by then.

A video shared from Erie, Pennsylvania, shows the aftermath of a lake-effect snowstorm that buried parts of the city under feet of snow. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro signed a disaster declaration and sent additional resources to the region to help with snow removal efforts.
