Come for the gallery of photos from snowy Syracuse, but stay for the other news.
Tuesday’s Headlines: Snow Time to Relax Edition
Lots of snow.

The state legislature will be back in session today, but the story yesterday was the snow. Streetsblog Empire State Bureau Chief Austin C. Jefferson is under the weather as a result, so you’re stuck with Streetsblog Editor Gersh Kuntzman for today’s upstate headlines.

Start with a gallery of photos from snowy Syracuse from the Daily Orange.

Let’s get to it:

  • The MTA’s East Side Access, a relic of decisions made long-ago, hasn’t really helped commuters. (LIRR Today)
  • Low-emission buses are coming to central New York. (Central NY Business Journal)
