There's snow. And then there's snow.

Timelapse footage of a blizzard dumping feet of snow on a neighborhood is giving people a glimpse at how powerful winter storms can be.

According to the video description, the video was captured via Nest cam in the town of St. John's in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The timelapse captures 24 hours of the storm when it blew through on Friday, starting at about 5:30 in the morning.

The storm dumped 30 inches of snow in parts of St John's, according to the Washington Post, and even created drifts upwards of 12 feet high.

Spring, if you're out there, feel free to swing by whenever.
