A major winter storm pummeled the Tri-State Area with snow and ice after New York and New Jersey declared states of emergency.

Snow storms dumped snow on both ends of the country, but how much fell varied widely. Maps show snow totals across USA.

Heavier snowfall has been reported in Upstate New York, with 9.2 inches in Poughkeepsie and 10 in Pine Plains. For numerous counties, Governor Kathy Hochul has declared a disaster emergency due to "imminent danger to public transportation, utility services, public health, and public safety systems."

New York has woken up to its heaviest snowfall in nearly four years after a winter storm blanketed parts of the US north-east. New York City's Central Park recorded 4.3in (11cm) of snow, its highest since January 2022, while other parts of the state saw up to 7.5in of snow, said the US National Weather Service (NWS).

The snow came down particularly hard in areas north and east of the city. Several communities in the Hudson Valley and Connecticut recorded 9 inches.

A new map from the National Weather Service (NWS) shows the overall weather forecast and winter storm warnings. Snow has reduced significantly, as have sleet accumulations for the area of New York and New Jersey.
