Snow Totals for Winter Storm Janus, January's Second Big Snow

Written by Cait Russell  |  22. January 2014

With the predicted accumulation totals snowballing all week long, it should be no surprise to Long Islanders that yesterday's storm has transformed the Northeast into a winter wonderland. With some local towns receiving over a foot of snow and the South Shore getting hit particularly hard this time around, hundreds schools across Long Island closed for the day, and many students woke up to a bon-a-fide snow day. Nearby in Manhattan's Central Park, 11.5 inches of snowfall was recorded, in Queens totals of over or around a foot, and in Brooklyn, they received totals of around 10 and 1/2 inches of snow or less. Due to last night's high winds, there are also large drifts, so some areas may appear to have higher snowfall than the recorded totals.
