NYC Snowfall Totals Revealed: Tri-State Area Map Highlights Accumulation
After a recent winter storm, the snowfall totals for New York City and the broader Tri-State Area have been revealed. Though the city experienced less snowfall than initially expected, it marked the highest accumulation in nearly four years.
Snowfall Totals in the Tri-State Area
In New York City, Central Park recorded a final snowfall total of 4.3 inches on Saturday morning, marking the first accumulation over four inches since late January 2022. This year’s storm brought warmer air into the mix, resulting in lower totals across the city and New Jersey. Sleet and freezing rain contributed to these diminished totals despite surface temperatures remaining below freezing.
Comparative Totals Across the Region
Snow totals varied across the Tri-State Area:
- New York City: 4.3 inches
- New Jersey: Generally ranged from 2 to 4 inches in northern regions, with lower amounts in southern areas.
- Connecticut: The highest totals were recorded here, reaching up to 9.1 inches in New Fairfield.
- Long Island: Noteworthy totals included 7.5 inches in Babylon.
- Westchester County: Areas such as Armonk received 6.4 inches, while Putnam County’s total reached 5.7 inches.
Looking Ahead: Weather Conditions
As the storm subsides, a few lingering flurries may be present, but the primary weather front is moving out of the NYC area. Temperatures are projected to stay low, struggling to break above freezing through the weekend. Residents should exercise caution, as untreated surfaces may become dangerously slick.
By Sunday, daytime conditions are expected to be dry, but rain will return later in the evening, with temperatures gradually rising overnight. The high for Sunday should reach the upper 30s.
