  • Fact Check: Amazing timelapse of snow burying a neighbourhood is years old, not from recent US storm After the blizzard hit Buffalo City in Erie County in the last week of December 2022, a timelapse video of an area gradually getting buried under snow over a span of two days that is years old is going viral on social media. Listen to Story India Today Fact Check This is an old video and has been on the internet since 2016 at least. As per older videos, this incident may have been from the US state of Virginia. In the last week of December 2022, a blizzard left 39 people dead across New York's Erie County. Buffalo city, the seat of Erie County, was the most affected by prolonged whiteout conditions and power outages. Among the many, many photos and videos of the storm shared on social media is a timelapse video of an area gradually getting buried under snow over a span of two days that is going viral. “Buffalo, NY - 48 hour timelapse of Blizzard in 60 seconds,” read the caption to one such video. The archived versions of similar posts can be seen here, here and here. AFWA found that the video is at least seven years old and not related to the recent blizzard in Buffalo, New York. AFWA PROBE A reverse search of the viral video’s keyframes led us to the same shared on Reddit about four years ago. The caption to the video read, “Time lapse of a blizzard that dropped 31 inches of snow in 48 hours!”. The Reddit post had no other information about the video. A subsequent search using relevant keywords led us to the same video uploaded to a YouTube channel “Worse Than Chiggers” on January 25, 2016. Per its description, the video was from the winter storm Jonas that hit northern Virginia in the US between January 22 and 24, 2016. The channel also claimed the video was shot by the person running it from their front porch in northern Virginia. We also found the same video in a Daily Mail report published on January 27, 2016. Per the report as well, the video was from Virginia. We were not able to independently verify the location of the video. However, it is clear that the clip is old and not related to the recent blizzard in Buffalo, New York. Please share it on our at 73 7000 7000 You can also send us an email at factcheck@intoday.com
