With the major snowfalls that have hit the Northeast United States and southern Canada in early 2013, there have been quite a few blizzard videos showing the carnage of the whiteouts.
Few blizzard videos are more clever and hypnotic than Geoff Fox's time lapse video of the 2013 blizzard slowly filling his patio with snow, courtesy of geofffox.com. Thanks to his GoPro Hero 2 camera and some time-lapsed editing, you too can now watch his patio go from clean to completely covered in snow is a mere 34 seconds. It's pretty fascinating to see the final few seconds when the blizzard really hits and the camera is literally buried in the white stuff. The video started off at 6:07 am, and ends at 11:00 pm that same day. Less than 24 hours to get completely buried in snow!
