The Blizzard Is Here — A Clean, Clear News Alternative for Northern New York
Watertown, NY — July 13, 2025 — Watertown Post Staff Report
There’s a new player in the North Country media world, and it’s cutting through the noise like Lake Effect on Route 11. It’s called The Blizzard, and it’s not like the other guys.
Accessible at TheBlizzard.us, this brand-new news aggregation site focuses exclusively on Northern New York—without the endless clutter, ad traps, or the same recycled obituaries posted across five counties.
Tired of clicking on so-called “local” news sites that hit you with five pop-ups before you even get to the weather forecast? Or trying to read about a town meeting only to be redirected to a maze of irrelevant articles and "sponsored content" from out-of-state? The Blizzard was built to end that nonsense.
You won’t find filler content. You won’t be redirected to paywalls. And you won’t have to scroll past 14 funeral notices and a NASCAR recap just to find something relevant.
Everything on The Blizzard is tied to our region—Watertown, Sackets Harbor, the Tug Hill Plateau, the Thousand Islands, the Adirondacks, and the small towns and cities that make up the real North Country. Whether it's county board decisions, school sports, development projects, or just a great story from Canton to Carthage, if it doesn’t relate to Northern New York, it doesn’t make the cut.
Founder Hans Wilder puts it plainly: “We were sick of news sites that claim to serve the region but are jammed with ads, national filler, and copied obituaries. The Blizzard is clean, quick, and committed to keeping Northern New Yorkers informed without selling them out.”
Expect curated headlines, real reporting, regional commentary, and an ever-expanding library of content created by and for locals—minus the junk.
No paywalls. No pop-ups. No nonsense. Just Northern New York news.
