On January 22, 2026, in Chili, New York, USA, @joey_frascati shared a video capturing a rare snow roller event near Black Creek. In the video, powerful winter winds sweep across a frozen open field, pushing fresh, lightweight snow into rolling, cylindrical shapes that resemble tumbleweeds. Blowing snow reduces visibility as the rollers move across the landscape. The unusual phenomenon formed under ideal conditions—light snow resting on icy ground combined with sustained winds of around 30 mph—creating a dramatic and uncommon winter scene.
