| Event narrativeevent_narrative | An Alberta clipper type storm system moved eastward across Pennsylvania during the late evening of the 14th and early morning of the 15th. A fairly narrow east to west band of moderate to heavy snow fell during this time frame from the northern Finger Lakes region eastward to the Mohawk Valley and northern sections of the Susquehanna region in central New York. Once the low pressure system moved off the New Jersey coast, it began to slow down and throw Atlantic moisture back over sections of the Catskills, also producing a burst of snow across this region. During daylight hours on the 15th and into the very early morning hours of the 16th, the combination of additional upper level energy and multi-band development off Lake Ontario produced several more inches of snow for many parts of central New York and locally heavy amounts in Oneida county. The heaviest snowfall totals for this entire event were across northern Oneida county, where 8 to 12 inch accumulations were common by sunrise on the 15th. Some specific totals included 11 inches in Westernville and Forestport, and 9 inches in Point Rock. For many other parts of central New York, amounts averaged 5 to 8 inches. Locke in southern Cayuga county and both Stamford and Fishs Eddy in Delaware county picked up about 8 inches of new snow. |
