Major roads were closed, train services halted, and more than 7,400 flights were canceled, with thousands more delayed, affecting airports including John F.

Snowfall totals included over 19 inches in Central Park, 14 inches in Boston, 14 inches in Philadelphia, and more than 32 inches in Providence. Winds reached 40–60 mph, creating massive snowdrifts. Over 608,000 homes and businesses lost power, seven states declared emergencies, schools closed, Broadway theaters shut down, and the United Nations headquarters closed. Officials, including Zohran Mamdani and Kathy Hochul, urged residents to stay home while National Guard and emergency crews responded.
