| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A cold front moved across eastern New York and western New England on Wednesday, December 10th, ushering a cold airmass into the region. A low pressure system developed over the southeast states Wednesday and Wednesday night. This storm then headed northeast Thursday and Thursday night, December 11th, with precipitation spreading northward well in advance of the low. The low continued to track northeast, passing over the mid Atlantic region late Thursday night, and over the New York City Metropolitan area and southern New England Friday morning, December 12th. The low then moved to the Canadian Maritimes Friday night. ||As the storm approached, warmer air moved in aloft, and with a cold airmass remaining in place at the surface, this set the stage for a significant mixed precipitation event. The precipitation came down heavy at times, especially Thursday night. Hourly precipitation rates of one quarter to one third of an inch were reported for several hours in the form of freezing rain across much of the region. The precipitation changed back to snow before ending early Friday afternoon.||Total liquid amounts of 1 to 3 inches fell across the Capital Region, eastern Mohawk Valley, the Saratoga region, and upper Hudson Valley, with 2 to 4 inches common across much of the eastern Catskills, mid Hudson Valley and southern Taconics, with the greatest amounts across higher southeast facing terrain of the Catskills.||This heavy rain led to flooding of small streams and creeks across the region, especially late Thursday night into Friday morning, in addition to widespread ponding of water in urban areas due to ice blocking storm drains. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | Heavy rain led to widespread ponding of water across eastern and central Albany County. This was exacerbated by clogged storm drains, which were blocked by ice.||Areas which suffered from the greatest ponding of water included Albany, Colonie, and Guilderland. |
