Historic Snowstorms of Central New York

About this book

Central New York, a region renowned as one of the snowiest in the world, has a long and stormy relationship with its winters.


From the Lake Ontario port in Oswego to the busy streets of Syracuse and Utica, every community in the region has found themselves buried from brutal snowstorms.

Author Jim Fafaglia draws from personal memories, family diaries and newspaper accounts to craft a two-hundred year history of Central New York's whiteouts, blizzards and snowstorms.
