Heavy snows made their way across New York City on Monday, paralyzing the tri-state area with blinding snow and icy winds. Authorities of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have declared states of emergency, as the storm could affect up to 60 million people in a dozen of states.
According to the National Weather Service, the tri-state area is expected to receive 24 to 36 inches of snow and winds gusting from 55 to 65 mph, with hurricane winds expected off the coast of eastern Long Island.
After calls by authorities, New York residents poured out of office buildings and crowded onto subway platforms, packed train stations and squeezed onto buses.
The largest single-day snowfall in the Big Apple’s history occurred in February 2006, when 26.9 inches of snow smothered the city in white.
