The shutoff is usually at your water meter, under a sink, or in your utility room. This stops the water immediately.

Go to your breaker panel and cut power to any circuit in the affected area. Never wade through water near electrical outlets or panels.

Syracuse is the snowiest major city in the US — averaging 127 inches of snow per year. This creates severe ice dam and roof collapse risks, as well as massive spring snowmelt flooding. Onondaga Creek runs through the city and has caused multiple flood events. The Onondaga Lake watershed management area has reduced but not eliminated flooding in central and south Syracuse. Ice dams forming on roofs are a signature Upstate NY water damage cause — trapped meltwater backs under shingles and soaks attic insulation and ceilings. Freeze-thaw pipe cycles are a major winter risk for any poorly insulated space.
