Monday night’s blizzard did not meet the grave, “historic” expectations meteorologists and public officials had set for it — at least, not in New York City.
After projections of between two and three feet of snow, 9 inches of snow blanketed the Bronx by Tuesday morning, according to the National Weather Service. Almost 8 inches covered Central Park and Park Slope, Brooklyn saw 7 inches.
Long Island and Massachusetts are said to have received the brunt of the storm. 17.8 inches of snow covered Massapequa, Long Island — and in Shrewsbury, Mass. — about 40 miles from Boston — 31 inches of snow covered the ground by Tuesday morning.
After canceling classes Monday afternoon and all day Tuesday, Fordham will resume its normal operating schedule on Wednesday, Public Safety said.
