Marian Snow keeps Erie at top partial clip By Jule Gardner <<Among its accomplishments, Erie now is No. 2 for snowfall in the Northeast. For now. Only one city has had more snow heaped on it than Erie this winter. The total in Syracuse, N.Y., Thursday was 91 inches. Erie is catching up with 88.4 inches. Rochester, N.Y., is close on Erie's heels, with just one-tenth of an inch less, according to the Northeast Regional Climate Center at Cornell University. Buffalo, which averages 97 inches of snow for the season and is typically the front-runner in the snow total derby, is a distant fifth. Only 71.8 inches of the white stuff has been recorded there so far.>> <<More than 40.8 inches of snow have fallen since Jan. 1, according to the National Weather Service. More than 26 inches fell in December. Another 1 to 3 inches are in the forecast for today.>>
