Countless New Yorkers — and whole lot of other people in the Northeast — woke up to a whole lot of white outside today. And there’s more coming. A blizzard warning remains in effect until 6pm. New York City never really shuts down, but this storm is definitely slowing us down — and we’ll be digging out for a while. Here’s the latest of the snowfall amounts, the forecast, the mayhem, and all the other impacts of the 2026 blizzard.

Subway and buses (and legs): yes; Planes, trains, and automobiles: no

Significant transit disruptions remain throughout the region. While subway and bus service has continued in the city with some modifications, the LIRR has been suspended since 1 a.m. Across the morning hours, Amtrak has issued a slew of train cancellations throughout the so-called “Acela Corridor.”

All flights are currently grounded at JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark. Roughly 3,000 flights have been cancelled thus far.

The city is still under a travel ban with roads closed to non-essential vehicles until at least noon with 2,300 plows at work clearing local roadways, per Mayor Mamdani.
