Serbs have erected more roadblocks in northern Kosovo and defied international demands to remove those placed earlier.

Executive Mark Poloncarz says "too many people" are ignoring the driving ban in Buffalo, making it difficult, if not impossible, for emergency vehicles.

伊利县行政长官马克·波隆卡斯表示，有“太多人”无视布法罗的驾驶禁令，导致紧急救援车辆通行困难，甚至无法通行。

Poloncarz said at the height of the storm when snow was four feet and drifts were even higher, emergency crews could not reach some in need.

波隆卡斯表示，风暴最严重的时候，积雪能够达到四英尺，风吹积而成的雪堆甚至更高，紧急救援人员无法到达一些需要帮助的人所在的位置。

There were resulting deaths, many found in cars and snowbanks.
