New York Declares State of Emergency

Buffalo Paralyzed by ‘Lake-Effect’ Snowstorm, State of Emergency Declared

A monstrous blizzard has descended upon Western New York, blanketing the region in thick snow and prompting Governor Hochul to declare a state of emergency for 11 counties. The powerful storm system, dubbed a "lake-effect" snowstorm due to its formation over the frigid waters of Lake Erie, has unleashed devastating snowfall, particularly in Erie County, where Buffalo is located.

“ Local authorities made this decision to protect the population from the dangers associated with this particular storm," stated an official press release. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Buffalo anticipates snowfall to continue accumulating east of the lake, with accumulations potentially reaching an additional 30 to 60 centimeters in the hardest-hit zones.

Though the heaviest snowfall is concentrated in the Buffalo area, the effects of this storm system are far-reaching. The NWS warns that between 3 and 4 inches of rain per hour could drench the Watertown area and Jefferson County. Eastern Ohio and western New York have already been buried under more than 30 inches of snow, making travel perilous and bringing daily life to a near standstill.

The relentless snowfall has ranked this

storm among the most severe weather events to strike the region in recent memory. Residents are grappling with closures, power outages, and treacherous conditions. Authorities urge caution and strongly advise limiting non-essential travel.

"The consequences of this storm are bad for residents, who are very concerned about their daily activities," a local official told reporters. “Authorities ask for caution and advise to limit non-essential travel.”

The NWS will continue to provide updates on the quickly evolving situation.
