Some 4.3in of snow was recorded in Central Park
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).
New York Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency in more than half of counties in the state ahead of the storm.
