MYFOXNY.COM - Think you're having a bad early winter? Try topping Fulton, NY.

It's snowed for ten straight days there.  There is more than 4-feet of snow on the ground.  It started snowing on December 28th and it's snowed every day since.

Fulton is a city in Oswego County, New York where they are used to long, cold winters.  The city is northwest of Syracuse.

Because Fulton, NY is located near Lake Ontario it receives significant "lake-effect snow".  It averages more than 100-inches per year.  This winter, however, has been especially harsh.

Yesterday, people were out for their daily runs, snow or no snow.

And, if you are wondering, there is snow in the forecast for the next six days in Oswego County.

In February 2007, then-governor Eliot Spitzer declared a disaster in Oswego County, when five straight days of lake-effect squalls dumped nearly 100 inches of snow on the county.
