NEW YORK: It’s been nearly two years, but New York City has recorded 1 inch of snow from today’s winter storm, meaning the city has broken its streak without measurable snow.
The National Weather Service said Central Park picked up 0.4 inches of snow on Monday, followed by 1 inch of snow between midnight and 7 a.m. Tuesday, bringing the storm total to 1.4 inches of snow so far. Central Park is the official measuring site for New York City.
Light snow will continue to fall across the region, but will change to a winter mix along the coast later in the morning, and ice may create hazardous conditions that will impact the post-holiday commute.
The National Weather Service issued winter weather alerts that stretch from NJ to Long Island, and schools announced delays and closings throughout.
