Blizzard warning is canceled for New York City Jan 27, 2015 6:31 AM EST / Blathnaid Healy
The blizzard warning issued Monday for New York City has been canceled by the National Weather Service and
downgraded to a winter storm warning , which it says is in place until midnight EST.
It's forecasting severe winter weather and says:
“Significant amounts of snow are forecast that will make travel dangerous. Only travel in an emergency. If you must travel keep and extra flashlight, food and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency.”
The NWS is, however, saying that blizzard conditions will continue across Connecticut and Long Island Tuesday, with snow accumulations of 12 to 16 inches and gusts of up to 45 mph.
Public transport services in New York are still suspended, however the MTA was able to see the brighter side:
