Blizzards

"The New York metropolitan area underwent another day of near paralysis yesterday [February 7, 1978] as a snowstorm finally ended after 40 hours, leaving the region all but buried under heavy snows and often impassable snow drifts."
  • "40-Hour Snowstorm Almost Paralyzes New York City Area," The New York Times, February 8, 1978, p.A1.

"In New York City, the snow in Central Park by evening had reached a depth of 19.8 inches, just short of the 1996 total of 20.2 inches, but well behind the record of 26.4 inches, set in the blizzard of Dec. 26-27 in 1947."
  • "Blizzard Buries Northeastern U.S., Disrupting Travel," The New York Times, February 18, 2003, p.B1.
