Winter Weather in Bronx, New York

A wet snow accumulated across the Bronx, with the county falling just below warning criteria. The public reported 5.0 inches at 1 NNE East Tremont, and broadcast media reported 4.6 inches at 1 SSW Parkchester. Just to the north in Yonkers 6 inches was reported.

Low pressure across the Tennessee Valley and the Gulf states tracked tracked north, and redeveloped and intensified rapidly off the Mid Atlantic coast. A heavy wet snowfall occurred across much of Southeastern New York, with lesser amounts across portions of the coast, especially along and closer to the south shore and eastern third of Long Island. Marginal surface temperatures precluded higher snow amounts in urban locations and further south and east. A combination of over 250 crashes and accidents were reported across Long Island during the storm from state and county law enforcement officials.
