We had a couple of prolonged power outages on Tuesday night/Wednesday early hours which downed a number of hosts and services, most of which stayed down until 0830 the following morning. Needless to say, a vast number of notifications were generated by Opsview, however now more than 24 hours after this has passed I'm still getting Down and Unreachable alerts from hosts every hour on the hour, all with a Date/Time of Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.

They're dropping in number every time it happens, but is this just a clearing of the backlog? If it is, is it possible for me to just kill all those notifications?

Opsview should have picked up when the hosts all came back at the time - are the status screens all showing the correct status, but you arestill getting email alerts? If so, these might just be queued emails that the server is finally passing on to your mail relay - only looking at the mail headers will reveal when they were sent.
