Snow Storm Weather Forecast New York — record snow brings east coast to a standstill
snow storm weather forecast new york has shifted to reporting and recovery after record-breaking totals left parts of the US east coast at a standstill. The powerful "bomb cyclone" closed airports and left hundreds of thousands without power as it moved on.
Record totals and new state mark
Part of Rhode Island received 97cm (37. 9in), setting a new state record. Bliss Corner in Massachusetts saw up to 94cm (37in). In New York City, Central Park recorded 50cm (19. 7in).
Flights, power and the storm
More than 5, 000 flights were cancelled after the "bomb cyclone" swept the region. Hundreds of thousands of people are without power as crews and residents cope with the outages.
Scenes across Manhattan and New York City
Photographs captured a wide range of scenes in New York. A view of the Lower East Side and the Financial District shows streets blanketed on 23 February. Passengers patiently waited for the train in deep snow in New York. A person crossed the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. The Naked Cowboy performed in Times Square in Manhattan on Monday. The heavy snow was a chance for families to get out and have some fun. Atmospheric scenes showed snow blanketing Manhattan streets. New York's Central Park was turned into a photographer's paradise. A woman used a machine to clear a pathway buried under the snow.
Storm path and warnings
The storm has now moved into Nova Scotia, Canada, where warnings remain for heavy snow and strong winds. Another fast-moving system, an Alberta Clipper, will bring snow and ice to the Great Lakes and north-east by midweek.
Week ahead: cold, frost and a warm peak
Snow totals from the Alberta Clipper are expected to be smaller, but the region will remain cold all week with frost at night and daytime highs just above freezing. Spring-like warmth is forecast to peak on Wednesday with 18C expected. Weather for the week ahead remains a focus for residents digging out.

Closing: Record snowfall from the "bomb cyclone" has left swathes of the east coast immobilised, disrupted travel with more than 5, 000 cancelled flights, produced record totals such as 97cm in part of Rhode Island and 94cm in Bliss Corner, and transformed parts of New York—including Central Park—into heavy-snow scenes while the system moved into Nova Scotia and warnings remained for heavy snow and strong winds.
