National Weather Service Issues Hazardous Outlook Warning For Buffalo-Area
On Thursday, November 24, 2022, at 5:26 am, the National Weather Service issued a hazardous weather 0utlook for portions of WNY. The potential for flooding due to snowmelt affects the counties of Northern Erie, Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, and Southern Erie. The warning is in effect for tomorrow, Friday, November 25, through Wednesday, November 30.
Above normal temperatures through the weekend will bring a gradual increase in runoff due to snowmelt in areas which received heavy lake effect snow last weekend. Periods of Sunday and Sunday night will increase runoff, potentially causing minor flooding of small streams and creeks, as well as urban areas with poor drainage in areas which got the most snowfall. The greatest risk for minor flooding will be on Buffalo area creeks Sunday through Sunday night.
Snowstorm Damage Your Home? New York State Is Making It Easier To File Claims
If your home sustained damage due to the recent lake effect snowstorm in Buffalo and Western New York, New York State is making it earlier to file a claim. Governor Kathy Hochul has instructed the Department of Financial Services to give Temporary Adjuster Permits to qualified out-of-state independent insurance adjusters to help expedite insurance claims. This move will increase the number of adjusters available to residents hardest hit by the lake effect snowstorm, so they can get paid out quicker.
