| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | On December 29 and 30, a winter storm tracked from Cape Hatteras to northern New England. This storm produced heavy snow across the Catskills, eastern Mohawk Valley, southern Adirondacks, northern Saratoga County and the surrounding higher terrain north and west of the Capital District. The heavy wet snow caused scattered power outages, especially in the Mohawk Valley and northern Catskills. Power outages were most widespread in southern Herkimer, Fulton, Montgomery and Schoharie Counties. At Amsterdam in Montgomery County, power was out for approximately eleven hours. Across the remainder of eastern New York, the precipitation fell as a mix of snow, sleet and rain. Due to this mixed precipitation event, snow totals only reached 2 to 5 inches in this region. Some specific snowfall totals included: 19 inches at Summit in Schoharie County, 15 inches at Windham in western Greene County, 15 inches at Old Forge in northern Herkimer County, 11 inches at Indian Lake in Hamilton County, 18 inches at Little Falls in southern Herkimer County, 14 inches at Slide Mountain in western Ulster County, 9 inches at Warrensburg in Warren County and 11 inches at Caroga Lake in Fulton County. |
