New York State Thruway Authority, which addresses the question of what constitutes an “ongoing storm” for the purposes of the “storm in progress” doctrine that provides that a property owner will not be held liable in negligence for a plaintiff’s injuries sustained as a result of an icy condition during an ongoing storm or for a reasonable time thereafter.
