Snowdrifts swallowed up mailboxes and more while piles of white stuff plagued drivers, pedestrians and local officials in a blizzard that left towns with hours of overtime plowing costs.

Here is a collection of videos during and after the memorable blizzard, which began Dec. 26, 2010.

In one video, Wall resident Mike Black took a time lapse of the snowfall, showing the heights snowdrifts would reach. Twenty hours of snowfall was compressed into under a minute in his viral video.

In others, the street markers of Belmar are partially obscured from the blizzard and road conditions prove hazardous. The Brielle station shows a train kicking up snow on the tracks as it rolls toward the platform.

Here is the National Weather Service's case study of the storm.
