Cortland Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Snow accumulated 8 to 18 inches. The heavy snow caused trees and powers lines to fall, resulting in approximately 1,075 customers without power.
Straight line wind damage began at 8:05 pm about a mile east of Virgil, and headed into Tuller Hill State Forest. Occasional tree branches of generally 6 to 12 inches in diameter were broken off of some hardwood oaks and maples. They were generally blown in a northeast direction on the north side of the path and in a southeast direction on the south side of the path...consistent with a diverging pattern and straight line winds. The path of occasional snapped branches, some a foot or more in diameter, continued from Pipeline and Snyder Hill Roads, across the Tioghnioga River. It then crossed Route 11 and Interstate 81. This includes a large fallen branch that blocked Route 11. Up to this point, peak wind gusts are estimated to have reached 70 to 80 mph.||Tree damage was much more sporadic and minor as the winds progressed east of Interstate 81, through the northern portion of Hoxie Gorge State Forest, with lesser winds of around 60 mph. However, by around 8:25 pm, winds then accelerated downhill across an open field 2 miles south-southwest of Solon. A small, old wooden power pole was blown down along Stramba Road, where winds in this exposed area are estimated to have reached 75 to 80 mph.
High winds occurred across the region with gusts between 50 and 60 mph. Numerous trees were blown down and many customers were without power.
