Surprise October Snowstorm (October 4, 1987)The earliest measurable snowfall at Albany, where 6.5" inches fell, with as much as 20" reported in parts of the Catskills. The storm wreaked havoc on the area because it was a heavy, extremely wet snow, which fell on fully leaved trees. Numerous branches and trees were felled...taking down power lines with them, blocking roads and damaging houses. Albany was described as "looking like a war zone." Hundreds of thousands of people were without power...some for up to two weeks. It was the most snow that ever fell during the month of October in Albany.
Same thing happened a couple years ago in buffalo only they got hit with a couple feet of snow. That was around Oct. 4th and lasted till after opening day of bow season (Oct.15th) because I had to go up and work restoring power instead of sitting in my tree stand putting an arrow through the pump station of a buck.
