At least 25 dead in Buffalo’s worst blizzard in 50 years. Roads remain impassable and a foot of additional snow is expected.
At least 25 people have died in this weekend’s catastrophic snowstorm, officials announced Monday, marking this blizzard as Western New York’s deadliest in at least 50 years.
Roads remain impassable and more than 12,000 people are still without power as the unrelenting storm is forecast to drop as much as a foot of additional snow, Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz said during a Monday morning news conference. First responders are still struggling to reach people trapped in their cars, while people stuck in shelters and nursing homes are running out of food.“This is the worst storm probably in our lifetime and maybe in the history of the city,” Poloncarz said.
The dead have been found in their cars, homes and in snowbanks. Some have had cardiac arrests while shoveling.
