One of the worst blizzards in Buffalo's history left at least two people dead. Emergency crews couldn't reach them amid historic blizzard conditions.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said Saturday that the Buffalo Niagara International Airport will be closed through Monday morning, some roads would be closed through Christmas day and almost every fire truck in Buffalo was stranded in the snow.
"This may turn out to be the worst storm in our community's history," Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz said Saturday morning. "There are still likely hundreds of people stuck in vehicles." "That is not to say attempts aren't being made, but there is no guarantee that in a life-threatening emergency situation they're going to be able to respond immediately," Poloncarz said.Governor Hochul has sent 54 members of the National Guard to the area to assist with rescue and recovery efforts.
