The term “Wetter New York Schneesturm” refers to a severe winter storm that brought heavy snowfall and strong winds to New York City and the surrounding areas. The storm, which occurred in January 2023, was one of the most significant snowstorms to hit the city in recent years. It caused widespread power outages, travel disruptions, and school closures.
The storm’s impact was particularly severe in the city’s outer boroughs, where snowfall totals exceeded 20 inches in some areas. The storm also caused significant coastal flooding, with waves crashing over seawalls and flooding low-lying areas. In addition to the immediate impacts of the storm, the heavy snowfall also led to a prolonged period of cold weather, which contributed to icy conditions and further travel disruptions.
