| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | On January 15 and 16, a winter storm moved from the southeast Atlantic coast north to the southern New Jersey coast and then out to sea. This storm dumped heavy snow across the southern Adirondacks and upper Hudson Valley. From the Mohawk Valley south to the mid Hudson Valley the precipitation fell as a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain. In the eastern Mohawk Valley, Capital District, Catskills and northern Taconics, three to six inches of snow fell with significant accumulations of sleet and freezing rain. Across much of Ulster and Dutchess Counties, a light accumulation of snow occurred followed by damaging accumulations of freezing rain and sleet. In this area the freezing rain downed trees and power lines which resulted in power outages to approximately 6,000 customers. Power outages were most widespread across northern Dutchess County and in the Towns of Ulster, Woodstock and Saugerties in Ulster County. Some specific snowfall totals included: 8 inches at Stillwater Reservoir in northern Herkimer County, 7 inches at Indian Lake in Hamilton County, 7 inches at Bolton Landing in Warren County and 6 inches at Whitehall in Washington County. |
