Buffalo was set to emerge from a deep freeze Wednesday, bringing some relief but also the tragic possibility of finding more victims amid melting snow from the area's deadliest storm in decades.
After they realized she was gone, Purdy and his fiancee sheltered her body until first responders showed up with plows the next day.
Temperatures were expected to rise into the mid-40s on Wednesday and the low 50s by Friday, the National Weather Service said. The weather service said Wednesday that “any flooding is expected to be of the minor or nuisance variety.”While suburban roads and most major highways in the area reopened Tuesday, there was still a driving ban in Buffalo, and state and military police were assigned to enforce it. Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz, a Democrat, said “too many people are ignoring the ban.”
