| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A deep area of low pressure moved from the Mississippi Valley into the central Great Lakes Region during the night of January 2 and January 3. With arctic air in place over New York State, a wintry mix of heavy sleet and freezing rain resulted. This mix of precipitation resulted in significant accumulations of ice across the region. Total melted precipitation exceeded an inch across the Mid Hudson Valley. The storm resulted in hundreds of vehicular accidents or vehicles sliding off roadways. Two highways in Greene County (Route 23 and route 23A) were temporarily closed due to very slick conditions. Ice buildup downed power lines which caused 2,500 residents to be without power in the Mid Hudson Valley and an additional 1200 customers without power in the Saratoga region. There were several flight delays or cancellations at the Albany International Airport. |
