unfortunately not in WV.  Snow Ridge, right in the center of that pink area just south of Watertown, NY is a great little place.

Wild times in that area right now. It's a shame (maybe a good thing) that we didn't get that kind of snow down here. 

I ran across this article earlier. Here are a few (well several) of the pics I enjoyed. http://www.countryliving.com/outdoor/outdoor-living/buffalo-snowstorm-social-media-photos

They just need one stinking mountain up there!!  I'd gladly trade them any ole 4000 foot no-name Appalachian mountain for about 100 inches of their extra snow every year:-)

Instead they have to resort to stuff like surfing the Buffalo blizzard:

The door is the least of their troubles.  Roofs will be caving in when the temps go back up if they don't have the snow cleared.  That is TOO MUCH SNOW!!

Yes but Canaan does not get it all with one week. Canaan also has those wonderful rainey storms from the Gulf that we all love.....hate.
