SNOW CONTINUES

INTO TOMORROW

ONEONTA – Though Otsego County is now on the “back side” of Winter Storm Stella, as much as 3 inches of snow could fall overnight and into tomorrow, according to David Mattice, Oneonta’s National Weather Service observer.

“The front side of the storm is pulling away to the northeast towards Maine, so it’s getting less intense,” said Mattice. “But the wind will change direction, and we could see another few inches before all is said and done.”

As of 7 p.m., over 30 inches of snow had piled up. The State of Emergency and the roads will be open at 6 a.m. tomorrow, but the Winter Storm Warning will remain in effect until 8 p.m. tomorrow. Oneonta Public Transit will resume service at noon.
