Winter weather blasts US

 

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has declared a winter weather state of emergency for seven counties in New York state: 

  • Albany
  • Columbia
  • Greene
  • Rensselaer
  • Schenectady
  • Saratoga
  • Ulster

Cuomo said he has deployed 300 national guard soldiers to assist with snow removal and clean-up operations in these seven counties. The snow should be trailing off overnight, Cuomo said.

How much snow is the state getting? Areas around Albany have already seen more than one foot of snow, and may receive another eight inches by tomorrow morning. Areas in Central New York, Mohawk Valley, North Country and Mid-Hudson Regions are seeing up to eight inches in some areas, according to a news release from Cuomo’s office.

Reduced speed limits remain in effect on state-owned highways. New York State Troopers have already responded to more than 740 storm-related crashes statewide and assisted 558 disabled vehicles. No deaths have been reported at this time, according to the news release.
