Northeast Sucker Punch Frigid Wave Brings Blackouts
A brutal cold snap left thousands without heat and light as wind and ice storms paralyzed the Northeast. Ten traffic deaths across New England and three in New York State followed treacherous roads. Power failures affected about 75,000 Niagara Mohawk customers in eastern central New York, while many Massachusetts homes lost electricity. Schools closed and emergency centers opened as temperatures plunged below zero in multiple towns including Owls Head, Water Town, and Albany. Government officials, including Governor Nelson Rockefeller, warned the storm was exceptionally severe with widespread outages and damage from ice and fallen trees.
