In Port Jefferson, New York --- they're digging themselves out after a winter storm dumped nearly two feet of snow.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: Jim Iberger, resident, saying:<br/> <br />"It's... a lot of drifts... Yeah, it's a lot of snow!"<br/> <br />Some used snow blowers while others turned to plows to carve out paths in the knee deep snow and professionals had this advice for locals --- stay indoors.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: Manny Teixeira, snow plow driver saying:<br/> <br />"They're all over, the stranded cars... I seen cars on fire, I seen them upside down... there's cars on 347 and it's just... people shouldn't be out. They're all over the roads. They should stay home."<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: Unidentified driver saying:<br/> <br />"It's horrible. Absolutely horrible out there. We'll be plowing out till Monday. Hopefully it'll be 50-degrees on Monday, we'll be melting. There's no place to put the snow."<br/> <br />In some states along the East Coast, major roads have been closed to only emergency vehicles and authorities are recommending people not venture out until the storm passes on Sunday.
