All schools and most government offices have been closed, with employees given a day off. The United Nations headquarters also suspended its work because of the bad weather.
As an exception, the police will not fine those who left their cars on the streets at the time designated for snow removal works, which is from 8 a.m. until 11 a.m.
Exactly four years ago New York was virtually buried under tons of snow. Snowdrifts were up to 70 cm high in Central Park. All local airports closed down.
A snowstorm in Washington, D.C. broke a record as well. After strong blizzards, the thickness of snow on the East Coast reached 139.4 cm, a record for the past 110 years.
