NEW: POTUS Biden grants emergency federal assistance to Buffalo amid blizzard conditions
Biden signed the emergency declaration just hours after Hochul submitted the request on Monday afternoon, citing the need for immediate assistance to areas impacted by the winter weather. At least 27 people have died from the storm in Western New York, with thousands more still without power, according to the state government.“I would like to thank President Biden for signing the emergency declaration,” Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said in a statement.
Hochul declared a state of emergency for all of New York on Thursday evening ahead of the arrival of the storm, which remains in place this week. The New York governor also deployed several emergency response agencies as well as an additional 220 National Guard soldiers to the Western New York region in response to the blizzard conditions.
Hazardous conditions are expected to continue across the state over the next few days, according to the National Weather Service. At least 50 people have died nationwide due to inclement winter conditions, including residents in Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Wisconsin, according to NBC News.
