National Guard troops trudged door-to-door in search of additional winter storm victims, traversing parts of Buffalo hit by prolonged power outages, following a deadly Christmas blizzard that buried New York’s second-largest city in blinding snow.
Poloncarz said the National Guard was conducting wellness checks in each neighborhood of Buffalo and its suburbs where electricity was out for lengthy periods, looking for anyone who may have suffered hypothermia or some other medical distress while trapped indoors without power and heat.
Nearly all electricity had been restored by Wednesday morning throughout Erie County, with fewer than 1,000 homes that utility crews hoped to have back in service by the end of the day, Poloncarz said. A driving ban remained in effect for Buffalo with military and New York City police officers called in to wave cars off the road and turn away traffic trying to enter the city.
