Heavy Snow in New York (manhattan), New York

Heavy wet snow accumulated on trees. One branch fell on and killed a male in his 30s in Central Park around 3:58 pm EST. Numerous trees were downed from 69th through 71st streets along 5th Avenue. One tree fell on and crushed a city bus with people in it. No injuries were reported.

Low pressure rapidly deepened as it tracked north from the North Carolina coast Thursday morning the 25th of February to over the Tri-State area by Thursday evening. This was in response to a powerful upper level disturbance approaching the Eastern U.S coast. The low presure area then rotated over the region through Friday afternoon before finally lifting out on Saturday. This low brought a combination of heavy snow, heavy rain, coastal flooding and strong winds to the region Wednesday Night through Friday. Up to 3 feet of snow fell across interior portions of the Lower Hudson Valley, one to two feet across the NYC metropolitan region and six to twelve inches of snow across eastern Long Island.
