NEW YORK — This was one for the books!
As of 12:07 a.m. Sunday, Central Park had 26.8 inches of snowfall, making it the second largest recorded snowstorm in New York City.
The amount narrowly missed tying the previous all-time record of 26.9 inches which was set from the storm of Feb. 11-12, 2006.
The city did say the record for “single day” snowfall accumulation — 26.6 inches. The storm had started late Friday evening. The old single-day record was 24.1 inches.
For context, the normal amount of snow for the entire season is 25.1 inches — we took care of that in one day.
However, some parts of the tri-state area saw considerably more. Port Richmond on Staten Island, for example, saw 31.3 inches of snow, but for record keeping, Central Park is the way to go, even though other communities across the tri-state area undoubtedly saw a record amount of snow.
Here are the snowfall total in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut so far, according to the National Weather Service:
