However, the storm, which actually began on Sunday, has dropped a grand total of 62.9 inches of snow on Erie, according to National Weather Service Cleveland.

The city of Erie declared a Snow Emergency on Tuesday, Erie Police said.

Kara Murphy has lived in Millcreek Township, a suburb of Erie, for 15 years and told CNN she's never seen snow like this. She said they cleared the snow off of her in-laws' car Monday night, but it's already covered in snow again.

She took this photo of the snowfall covering trees and the in-laws' car at about 7:30 a.m. Tuesday.

"We had a plow come down our street overnight, but it's impassable again," she said.

CNN affiliate WICU shared this photo on its Facebook page from meteorologist David Wolter showing vehicles smothered by the snow.

"We are buried here at Erie News Now!" the news station wrote.

With fresh snow piled high, the dogs of Erie seemed to enjoy the day. Marissa McGraw posted a short video of her 3-year-old dog, Chevy, wading through snow to get his frisbee.

Vince Dragone, who lives just outside Erie, posted video of Oakley, his two-year-old German Shepherd, venturing out into the piles of snow. Oakley typically likes the snow, Dragone said, but it took him a while to get the confidence in snow this heavy.

"He did finally do his business after digging out a clearing," Dragone said.

Dragone said he is still shoveling his driveway and hasn't gotten out yet.

"Luckily, I'm off today," he said.
