Winter storm live updates: New York City sees highest daily snowfall in over 2 years
Central Park recorded 3.2 inches of snow.
A snowstorm struck the Northeast on Tuesday, blanketing roads with snow from Pennsylvania to New Jersey to New York to New England.
The fast-moving storm hit Tuesday morning ahead of rush hour and ended Tuesday afternoon.
Suburbs were hit the hardest. New York City and Boston, which were forecast to get 4 to 8 inches, saw just 3.2 inches and 0.1 inch respectively.
New York City, Boston close schools
New York City's public schools, the largest system in the country, will be closed Tuesday, with classes moving to remote learning, Mayor Eric Adams announced.
This marks the first time in two years that New York City has been under a winter storm watch.
Boston Public Schools will also be closed Tuesday.
What’s next?
As the nor’easter leaves Tuesday, cold air is moving in, turning the snow on the roads into ice.
Early Wednesday morning, temperatures will plummet to about 25 degrees in New York and Philadelphia and 22 degrees in Boston.
During the day, temperatures will rise to the 30s and 40s this week, and sunshine will help melt Tuesday's snow.
Another round of winter weather is possible in New England by the end of the week.
