After hours of quiet weather, snow fell once again in much of the Tri-State Area.

A fast-moving winter storm brought snowfall across the region Sunday evening. Totals mostly ranged from 1 to 3 inches. Central Park reported just under an inch.

The coating of snow was welcome where there were hills.

Mariani and her sister look forward to it every time it snows more than a couple of inches. Saturday’s snowfall and Sunday’s added up to just enough.

“I’m pretty surprised,” she said.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani says nearly 1,000 sanitation workers were out with more than 700 salt spreaders. The mayor says the number of workers is expected to double on Sunday to about 2,000.

Saturday’s snowstorm was the first of the year and the first for Mamdani since he took office.

While Saturday’s snow came in quickly and packed a punch across the area, Sunday’s snowfall piled up even more as temperatures continue to drop.

The city’s Department of Sanitation and Office of Emergency Management are both urging drivers to slow down while on the roads.

“Take it easy, take it slow. We’ve had instances where we have treated the roadways and motorists are just going a little too fast,” acting NYC Sanitation Commissioner Javier Lojan said.

Eyewitness News caught up with runner David Lee in Central Park, who is braving Sunday’s weather to get in his daily dose of exercise.

“I run every weekend, Saturdays and Sundays, race walk actually, and do a little running religiously for the past probably 30 years,” Lee said.

While Lee was initially hesitant to make the trek outside, he decided to go through with it.

“You know, I was conflicted a little bit. I was thinking, I don’t know, I do it in the snow all the time, but this morning it feels cold and kind of wet. But yeah, I’m ok and I’m out here,” he said.
