It was 23 degrees (19 with wind chill) and blowing snow with near whiteout conditions. A perfect time to ...go surfing? Two daring surfers hit the waves of Lake Erie outside Buffalo on Tuesday in the midst of one of the city's nastiest snow storms, which dumped up to five feet of snow in a matter of hours. Christian Edie and her fiance Kevin Cullen filmed their brave stunt - though it was so cold outside that they had to stop rolling several times to clear the ice off the camera.
