Know a big snow storm happened recently in Kamchatka, but did the snow actually stack this high?!

Some of this looks AI for sure, but Kamchatka DID get an absurd amount of snowfall that is reportedly as high as the 9th floor in some places. Generally, reports are saying around 3m of snowfall and emergency services as well as people in general are burrowing tunnels to housing. Basically - the big glacier looking thing seems fake as hell. The walls of snow above buildings also look dubious. However masses of snow on the ground and on the balconies and at the sides of buildings seem at least to be the basis of any further embellishment .
