The overnight snowstorm that continues today has caused a dozen accidents and brought down trees and wires across the county, reports Rob O'Brien, Otsego County 911 director.
"The roads are in very poor condition," he said. "And we're dealing with trees and wires down everywhere due to the weight of the snow."
In Oneonta, city police have begun ticketing cars parked on streets, and reminds drivers if cars must be towed, owners must pay the cost.
