Vicious March blizzard strikes Great Lakes Region hitting Syracuse, NY especially hard. The National Weather Service issued blizzard and winter storm warnings for Upstate New York as heavy snow and 40-50 mph winds blow snow causing white-out conditions with zero visibility. Traveling is dangerous as plows and salt crews can\'t keep up with the powerful storm. The roaring winds knock down power lines and utility poles causing widespread power outages over the Syracuse area and Interstate 90 is shut down due to treacherous driving conditions.
All footage shot in late afternoon and evening in daylight in or near Syracuse, NY.
