Winter Storm 'Stella' battered the Northeast and dumped tons of snow from Pennsylvania and New York all the way up through New Hampshire and Maine. We've taken a time-lapse video of the snow piling up in Central New York.

In Oneida County, all roads will be closed to all but emergency traffic effective at 6PM this evening and will remain closed until 6AM Wednesday.

Here in Central New York, it's pretty hard to escape Stella. You may need flashlights, batteries, food, plow services, and more. However, experts are warning many to watch out for scammers.

It's bound to happen.  Someone is anxious to get home and worried about the condition of the roads.  They clean off their driver's window and enough of the windshield to see the front of the car.  Maybe they figure the extra weight of the snow on the car will give them better traction...

It's understood that you just never take food from the refrigerator in the staff break room, unless it's yours.  Nice people just don't steal food from co-workers. However, when we find ourselves snowed-in here at the radio station, I think the rules may change.

The City of Utica has declared a Snow Emergency that will remain in effect until further notice

States of Emergency has been declared in Madison and Oneida Counties due to conditions caused by today's storm.

Moms were quite sure that their kids would be home from school today, and thinking that maybe the entire family might be snowbound.  When that happens, you need bread, eggs, water and all the basics.  But what about the important stuff...

Governor Andrew Cuomo has announced a tractor trailer ban on the Thruway and other interstates.

Winter storm 'Stella' is packing quite a punch. Central New York will see more snow than originally expected.  The Winter Storm Warning from the National Weather Service remains in effect until Wednesday night.

The biggest storm of the season has Governor Andrew Cuomo declaring a state of emergency in New York State.

It looks like winter doesn't want to end quietly, with this big winter storm hitting Central New York and all over the Northeast. It's not the worst news we could get this week, though.
