In this issue we take a look back at the historic
Blizzard of 1977 that buried western New York on January 28, 40 years ago.
All articles and photos orginally ran in a special Snowed In edition of Suburban News on February 3, 1977.
Snowed In!
Snow from an unusual Artic wind, blowing south and bouncing off the Rocky Mountains, then richocheting on the East coast has landed smack in the middle of our communities, forcing snowmobilers to undertake emergency operations, schools to close and many families to buckle down for some unexpected hibernation. Meteorologists said this week that the Artic wind, for some as yet unexplained reason, is causing severe temperature changes in the Northern U.S., including a relative warm spell in Alaska. “It’s the worst thing I have ever seen” said Hamlin Supervisor, Lawrence Merritt. “And the includes 1966. Hamlin was one of the worst areas for blowing and drifting snow. Most of the roads which were inundated when the storm hit about 1 p.m. Friday, were still impassable on Monday afternoon. The closing of Route 19 north of Ridge Road to Hamlin, twice prior to the latest blizzard prompted Merritt to proclaim a state of emergency in the town. The emergency was in effect when the blizzard hit. To compound the paralyzing effect of the storm in Hamlin a power failure caused by a blown transformer in the Harper Mobile Home Park on Brick Schoolhouse Road necessitated its evacuation. continued on page 3

“Without the great work and cooperation of the Black North Riders Snowmobile Club and other volunteer snowmobilers we might have had a grim situation,” Merritt said. “We have never had anything equal to this.” “We had a snowmobiler who almost ran into some telephone wires while riding over a drift,” he said. A fire also broke out in the town but the fire vehicles were unable to respond because of plugged roads. Snowmobiles were rigged with sleds to get to fires, should they break out Merritt said. The supervisor estimated that between 60 and 80 persons were stranded at each of the Hamlin, Walker and Morton Fire Halls on Friday night. A state of emergency was also put into effect for the Village of Brockport. Mayor Jim Stull said that the situation warranted the action because it allowed the village to tow abandoned vehicles in order to clear the streets and to set up emergency housing for stranded motorists. The emergency was in effect from 4 p.m. Friday to noon Saturday. Stull said that at least 60 persons stayed overnight in the Market Street Fire Hall where they were fed by the local womens’ auxiliary. In Clarkson the situation was the same. Route 104 west was completely clogged with drifted snow on Friday and hazardous driving through Monday as the strong westerly winds continued. Clarkson Supervisor Doug Cunningham said that at least 35 persons spent the night in the town hall which was left open for stranded motorists. Route 104 east to Town Line Road was closed on Friday evening and opened on Saturday afternoon although drifts still blocked driving lanes in some places and slippery surfaces existed. By Monday all roads were passable except Sweden Walker Road, from Lawton north to Route 18 and part of Lawrence Road. Cunningham said the northern part of Clarkson lost its power apparently as a result of the Hamlin break. The storm which struck the area only complicated a natural gas shortage caused by the earlier cold air which has created what some people

consider the worst winter in this century. As a result of the gas shortage, all Brockport schools were to be closed for the week. Dave Field, superintendent of schools, said, “We will keep the schools closed through Sunday, February 5 and open them on Monday morning depending on the weather.” The two elementary schools are heated by oil but they too were to be closed with the high school and the middle school. At least 100 teachers were stranded at the high school on Friday night while 49 students practicing for a school play stayed in the middle school where the fire department transported about 75 persons previously housed at the fire hall in the village. Nearly 20 teachers spent the night a the Ginther School. Brockport police chief, Don Hare, said that the worst problem in the village was the area around Allen and Adams Streets and Centennial and Allen Streets. Abandoned cars were parked in the streets where they either got stuck in the deep snow or stalled. “This was the worst place because we could not get plows through to clear them out,” he said. Smith Street, south of Clark, was another bad area, Hare said. Persons from the village and town also volunteered snowmobiles to transport nurses to the hospital and as emergency vehicles. Some police cars could not get through the car-clogged streets. Hare said that the police station received hundreds of calls. He said that two dispatchers were on duty all night Friday and they were constantly on the phone. He said that radio station WWBK was a big help in taking some of the calls. But they were not the only ones busy because of the storm. Elliot Reynolds, highway superintendent for the village, said that by Monday afternoon, at least one plow had been on the road since early Friday. “We towed the cars as best we could around 10 p.m. Friday night and really got down to plowing the remaining streets from 2 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday. Reynolds, who has been with the highway department for six years, said that this was the worst situation he has seen. continued on page 4

Most of the commercial businesses in the village were closed down Friday afternoon according to Helen Philips, a member of the Downtown Merchants Association. Business was almost at a standstill on Saturday and by Monday nearly 60 percent of the stores were still closed. A spokesman for Wegmans supermarket said that there was no shortage of basic food but it was reported that many stores were low on bread and milk on Saturday. General Electric canceled its second shift on Friday and its second and third shift on Monday according to Charles Woods, plant manager. “We are virtually closed,” said Woods when contacted during the first shift on Monday morning. “At least 80 percent of our employees are out because many of them come from neighboring counties or from rural areas.” Woods said that the plant is heated with a combination of gas and oil and if it comes down to it, the plant could switch to primarily oil. “We can get an alternate energy” Woods said, adding, “We are attempting to run some things on propane.” The College at Brockport was open for registration on Friday but the hours were extended to Monday because of the weather, according to a spokesman. The college schedule has been interrupted only in some graduate education courses because of school closings, he said. About 70 persons spent Friday night in the ballroom of the student center on the campus. Many people were stranded there while attending a conference at the college on Saturday. Many of the men stayed in the ballroom while guest rooms in the residence halls were readied for the woman. College president Albert Brown stated his appreciation to the many college employees who helped feed and house the stranded visitors in a campus dining hall. All in all, the storm in this area could have been much more costly in injury and lives, according to highway officials. Elliot Reynolds, in answer to why the town was in such good shape said, “We were lucky.” In Hilton-Parma area over the weekend, drifts forced many residents to take an unexpected vacation. Schools were closed to save energy. Cars were stranded along Town Line Road and many residents were still out shoveling late in the week. (Superintendent Joseph Clement of Spencerport Schools said Sunday that the schools would be closed even though they are on oil heat. He said they had decided to shut down to conserve energy and to accommodate BOCES students.) Drifts were up to 20 feet in Hilton and broken water lines on a few farms caused trouble for barn inhabitants.

About 120 people spent Friday night and part of Saturday morning in the Cosgrove School in Spencerport. Normally, the heating system in the building switches from regular day schedule, to a night schedule which allows for a considerable savings in fuel consumption. With the knowledge that a large number of people would be stranded in the school building, District Superintendent Joe Clement sent out instructions that the heating system should not be switched to the night cycle. “With people sleeping on gym floors and anywhere else possible, I knew we were going to have to have heat in the building,” he said. The extreme cold caused by the high winds that pummeled Spencerport meant that the district would use 2000 more gallons of fuel oil than normally. The only facility in the Spencerport District not heated by oil is the bus garage which uses natural gas. Over the weekend, a decision was made to close the school for the week. “Safety is the paramount consideration in any decision such as this,” said Clement, “with the weather reports we were receiving, it looked as though we would have to close.” The closing for the week has probably saved the district thousands of gallons of fuel according to Clement. A very important consideration in the closing was the interdependancy of the district with other educational facilities. Twenty one percent of the students in the high school are involved in some way with either the occupational center or with the special education programs held outside of the school. The closing of those facilities proved to be a major factor in the closing of the Spencerport system. Unlike many schools in the county, Spencerport has not had any damage to their buildings due to the decrease in temperature. Some schools have had water pipes burst causing considerable damage. The temperature in the Spencerport Schools for the week centered right around fifty degrees. It has not yet been decided when or even if the missed school days will have to be made up. However, Clement said that the board will be discussing the matter and that the feeling is that the state standard of 180 school days will be followed. Teachers will be paid for the week during the closing and according to Clement, “It will be a question” when considering how payment for make-up days will be worked out. Many people have expressed concern over the status of students’ ability to get back into the routine of schoolwork after so many days of holiday. In Spencerport, an almost ideal situation is present. The second semester started at the end of January and the closing provides a natural break between semesters. “We don’t worry about it,” commented Clement. “It might even prove to be an advantage because of the momentum worked up to get back into the instructional pattern for the second semester.” Throughout the closing, the superintendant and his staff as well as the central office staff, building principals and maintenance personnel have been at the school. Some coaches have also been in the school during the latter part of the week to begin practice for some of the sports teams. “The staff has worked far beyond anyone’s expectations during the emergency,” said Clement. “I have got to say that this is just a super group of people to work with.” Some Spencerport lads took a moment off from playing on their snow loft to watch a snow plow finish its second trip

Hamlin battered by storm Inside temperature drops below freezing “I couldn’t see out my front window, at all, for about 4 or 5 hours. It has to be a miracle those men ever got the electricity back on.” Mary Roussey of Hidden Creek Lane, Hamlin, was one person affected by the power failure which added insult to snow-blowing injury last Friday evening in storm-paralyzed Hamlin. From late afternoon to early next morning the Roussey home was without heat, thanks to a local power break which prompted the evacuation of some 60 residents from the neighboring trailer camp. “The power went off about 1:30 in the afternoon Friday, but came back on at 4:45,” Mary said this week, while blizzard warnings remained. “But it was only off and on - very dim. Then it went off at 7:45 and was out until about 3:30 in the morning.” She said the power went out once again, but that full power was restored about dawn. For her and her two children, Chris and Cathy, both in their early teens, it was quite an experience, and a cold one at that. Their home has a fireplace but that didn’t do much good: they were out of firewood and Mr. Roussey, Regis, was stranded in Brockport. They ran out of wood about midnight. “It was kind of scary,” Mary said, “because all the men on the street were stuck someplace else - but we women did pretty well on our own.” She said that the temperature in her house dipped to 29 degrees. And when the power finally came on again, it took 6 to 8 hours to warm the house. “It got to be a little hairy. We started to wonder, is it ever going to let up?” She said neighbors kept in touch by telephone throughout the night and shared food. “Most people didn’t have food because it was the end of the week and we all had planned to do shopping on the weekend.” But a record snowfall and blizzard, coming from Buffalo and points west dashed those hopes, so “we just shared what we had. We did pretty well.” “And I guess we’re not as bad off as people in Buffalo. In her house, the kids slept on the couch which was pushed up to the fireplace. Luckily, no water breaks occurred in the Roussey household but that wasn’t the case throughout the neighborhood. “Some friends had water up to their ankles in the basement,” Mary said. But things could have been worse,” she said. “West of us things are worse. We’ve got a lot to be thankful for.”

Hamlin Snowmobilers - Rigged for anything Hamlin - On Friday it started. The Hamlin snowmobile club evacuated about 70 people from the Harper trailer park. They took the families who were without power due to the break to the Hamlin Fire Hall. But on Saturday the work really began.
According to Denny LaDue, president of the Black North Country Riders, Hamlin’s only snowmobile club, there were regular runs over drifts as high as 15 feet on unplowed roads in Brockport for medicine. Residents who needed medication and had no hope of leaving their homes would call the Hamlin dispatcher who in turn would radio the fire hall. That’s where the snowmobilers were stationed. “Then we’d make a run to Brockport to pick up medicine, groceries and even to bring some people to the hospital. One girl cut her nose and we transported her to the town line and Brockport fire department picked her up from there.” He said about 20 to 25 snowmobilers were working over the weekend and into the week, at different times. “We then brought the medicine and things to Walker and Hilton and any place we could.” He said he knew of no other casualties except for a broken leg. “Certain roads were open Sunday but there’s still roads unplowed in Hamlin,” he said Wednesday. “Some of the club members are firemen. We worked with the firemen (volunteers) and it went well. In case of a fire, we were rigged for that, too.” The snowmobilers, who formed the club in 1970, got help from non-club members, too. “And we’d like to thank those people who helped - and the club members, too,” LaDue said. LaDue, a Kodak employee, said he continued to work in addition to the extra chores created by the storm. Snowmobilers next to the home of Harold Boughner in Churchville.

As the snow began to fall heavily on Western Monroe County many people began to wonder about the safety and security of Aunt Mary or Uncle Bob. They walked over to the telephone, placed it to their ear, and then found that they had no dial tone. “This is not an unusual problem during an emergency such as the one we have just been through,” said Bob Schaeffer of the Ogden Telephone Company. “Whenever there is a major catastrophe such as this, everyone tries to use their telephone at the same time causing an overloading of our trunking capabilities. As they pick up their phone, there is a slight hesitation and then the unit goes into what we call lockout. A busy signal then goes over the phone lines.” He emphasized that this is not the result of faulty equipment. Ogden Tel had few problems with central equipment going down. Their capacity for handling calls is geared toward meeting the needs of the calling area and providing for an additional capacity which may not be put to use except during peak times. When an emergency situation comes about the lines available are unable to handle the excess calling. “We were in as good shape as any phone company in the state,” said Schaeffer. “Many phone companies had to go onto radio and television stations and plead with the public to use their phones for emergency calling only. While we did experience some ‘lockout’, we did not have any major problems.” As with most businesses during the storm, there were unusual problems however. Kevin Daly of Hilton found himself manning the company’s Hilton Central Office by himself due to weather conditions that forced other employees to stay in their driveways. On Chase Road, a family of mice got so cold and hungry that they found their way into an underground cable enclosure and chewed insulation off phone cables, shutting down service to a number of homes. To travel to this particular site, the installation and repair department teamed up with the outside plant department on snowmobiles furnished by service manager Dick Daly to transport repair equipment to the scene. “There were actually very few individuals problems,” said Schaeffer. Most individual problems came from “drops.” A drop occurs when a cable running from the pole into the dwelling falls down because of wind or ice or is knocked down in the course of snow removal. “Individual problems are now being taken care of on a priority basis, and should be cleared up very soon,” he said. While they are behind in installation of new units, Schaeffer said that this should be cleared up within the week. “We take emergencies such as this in stride,” Schaeffer said. “It is our responsibility to see that the phone service, so essential to the community in times like that, is maintained. We think we did well during this emergency and appreciate the cooperation of all customers
