Dangerous morning commute as sidewalks, roads covered in snow, ice<\/p>\n

Sidewalks and roads are slippery<\/a> due to the snow and ice.<\/p>\n

It will be difficult for drivers to get out of parking spots and challenging for pedestrians as they navigate these conditions.<\/p>\n

Snow banks created by the passing plows have buried bus stops. Stairs leading down to subways are hazardous as they are covered in snow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

How much snow fell?<\/p>\n

The total snowfall broke daily records in some areas.<\/p>\n

With a tally of 11.4 inches in Central Park, that was the most snow ever recorded for the date of Jan. 25. Every single one of our local climate reporting sites set new daily records for snowfall. <\/p>\n

Bridgeport, Conn., shattered its record with a 14.5-inch total, besting the 4-inch record from 2000.<\/p>\n

Double-digit totals were quite common across the region, especially across northern New Jersey and the Lower Hudson Valley.\u00a0<\/p>\n

New City, N.Y., had the highest total with 17.6 inches. \u00a0<\/p>\n
