| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A storm system moved out of the Ohio Valley early in the morning on the 6th and crossed the Delmarva region that evening. The system then redeveloped near Long Island early on the 7th and moved slowly through central New England thereafter. Two distinct bouts of heavy snowfall affected central New York during this time frame. The initial shot of snow fell primarily during the day on Saturday the 6th. After a lull that evening, snowfall picked up again overnight and continued into the morning hours of the 7th before tapering off. On the 6th, snow first developed just prior to daybreak across the Finger Lakes and central southern tier regions. The snow quickly spread eastward to envelope all of central New York by mid-morning. Late in the afternoon, the first shot of snow moved off to the east. Accumulations over central New York during the day generally ranged from 5 to 12 inches. The heaviest band of snow extended west to east from the northern Finger Lakes all the way through the northern Susquehanna and Mohawk Valley regions. Some specific totals were as follows: 13 inches in Stokes Hills in Oneida county, 11 inches in Laurens in Otsego county, and generally from 8 to 10 inches in northern Steuben, Yates, Cortland, Chenango, and Madison counties. During the overnight hours from the 6th into the 7th, the brief respite from snowfall ended as heavier precipitation once again formed across central New York. By the time the snow wound down by late morning on the 7th, an additional 5 to 10 inches had fallen over many portions of the region, primarily to the north and northeast of Binghamton and Elmira. Storm totals from the two day event approached two feet in portions of northern Oneida county, and reached well over a foot throughout much of the Finger Lakes, northern Susquehanna, and Mohawk Valley regions. |
