The snow storm expected to dump snow on the region went easy on New York City, though surrounding areas did see significant snow. The National Weather Service said about 4 inches had fallen in Central Park by 1 a.m.

New York City schools will be closed Monday and alternate side parking was suspended for Monday and Tuesday. A hazardous travel advisory is in effect in New York City through Monday. You can check here for NBC 4 New York's complete list of area school closures. 

North of the city, Westchester County saw four to five inches.
