Where the lake effect is the most intense and persistent, snow will be measured in feet, not inches. Travel within these bands will be extremely dangerous, if not impossible. This will especially be the case across the Buffalo Metro Friday and Friday night. pic.twitter.com/49mLsqLX6T

This isn't the first time this has happened. The game between the Bills and Jets was moved to Detroit due to the weather.

The 1967 "Ice Bowl" is one of the best games of all time because of its playing conditions.

There will be no roads when you wake up on Friday and Saturday. "We just want people to give our plow operators the time and the space to be able to do their jobs so by Sunday, if the weather cooperates and the storm starts abating, we'll be able to get people on the roads by then"

Losing out on a home game isn't what the Bills would have liked, but the upside is they won't have to move their stuff out of the locker room. The Detroit Lions will play them on Thanksgiving Day.
