HARTFORD, Conn.—A quick-moving winter storm that hit the Northeast on Tuesday brought significant snowfall to some areas while others got less than expected. At least one person died, accidents were reported on slippery roads, airline flights were canceled or delayed, and many school districts closed or switched to remote learning—or at least tried to switch.
Some areas of Pennsylvania and Connecticut were blanketed in 15 inches (38 centimeters) of fluffy snow, while New York City’s Central Park only saw about 3 inches (8 centimeters) of slushy snow, according to National Weather Service reports.
