There’s a truly eye-popping scene in Eerie, Pennsylvania, after a snowstorm that started on Christmas Day dropped at least 55 inches of powder on the city.

The majority of the snow — 34 inches — fell on Christmas day, alone, making it the most snowy day ever on record in Eerie.

Then, at least another 16 inches fell from midnight through 6 a.m. on Tuesday morning, accounting for the most snowfall over a two-day period in Pennsylvania’s history, KDKA-TV reported.

According to the Weather Channel, the previous, two-day record was in Morgantown from March 20-21, 1958, when 44 inches fell. And the snow isn’t anywhere near done, as the outlet reported that more is expected to come through Wednesday evening.

Find some of the most insane photos from the snowfall below — and say a prayer for everyone who is getting covered:

STORM WATCH: This is UNREAL. NWS just reported Erie, PA picked up 19" of new snow between midnight and 6AM this morning. The total from the storm that started Christmas Day is now 53". That's the highest 2-day total EVER recorded in Pennsylvania. https://t.co/vM75cr7wsl pic.twitter.com/XdHdTrGxkB

I live just 10 mins outside of #Erie and this sign has never been more relevant and appropriate. 34 inches of snow inside 24 hours on Christmas Day and it’s not stop and more on the way this weekend. pic.twitter.com/SMGG7hiGlu

So, since 12 AM Christmas Day, #EriePA has gotten over 55 inches of snow. Their average for December and January COMBINED is just over 57 inches. Here's what Erie looks like right now: pic.twitter.com/NigHc79iGD
