Sunday Snowstorm: Where New York Got Buried the Most

A Whole Lot of Snow Fell Across New York

New York got absolutely walloped by snow, with many communities waking up to totals that landed right around — or well above — a foot. From the Southern Tier and Central New York to the Hudson Valley and into the New York City suburbs, this storm made sure nobody escaped with just a light dusting.

In a lot of places, it wasn’t a question of whether you needed to shovel… it was how many times you were going to have to do it.

Central New York Took a Solid Hit

A big chunk of Central New York woke up to just over half a foot to nearly a foot of snow, according to the National Weather Service.

Here are the updated totals as of 12:27PM Monday, January 26.

A lot of New York will spend the day shoveling between 10 and 18 inches of snow.

Another Storm on the Way

The Snow isn't not done yet — another significant lake effect event is headed to New York.

A Lake Effect Snow Warning is in place for parts of central and northern New York starting Tuesday morning and continuing through Thursday evening. That means heavy snow bands developing off Lake Ontario will repeatedly swing inland and dump snow in narrow but intense stretches.

In the heaviest bands, the NWS says 1–2 feet of additional snow is possible, especially across Oswego County. Far northern Cayuga, southern Jefferson, and far western Lewis counties could still pick up 8–14+ inches.
