| Episode Narrative | Deep low pressure passed over western New York with its trailing cold front rapidly sweeping east across the region. Winds increased within a few hours of the approaching front to gust speeds of 60 to 65 mph. Tens of thousands were left without power. There were reports of vehicles and/or buildings damaged by falling trees in: Niagara Falls, Ransomville, Rochester, Olean, and Perry just to name a few. The high winds were blamed for several delayed flights at both Buffalo and Rochester airports. The Clayton Dock was damaged by the winds. In Clarence, a large tent at the Clarence Soccer club was blown over by the strong winds. Four people suffered injuries���one of which had to be hospitalized. Damages are estimated. |
