The Blizzard of 2026
February 22-23, 2026 North American Blizzard Wikipedia
7:00 AM from Ellie's Living Room
The Bigger Picture. Pretty to look at but oh so dangerous.
10:00 AM - I live just around the bend from the Statue of Liberty.
A blizzard always takes me to The Day After Tomorrow.
1:00 PM - A fallen tree in Greenpoint, Brooklyn
2:00 PM - My daughter Zsia's backyard in New Jersey looking like a snow sculpture.
3:00 Parents and children sledding down a snow hill as the
Verrazano Bridge provided a backdrop to complete the narrative.
4:00 PM - Meet Duke, my daughter Nikki's Great Pyrenees, surveying the backyard after the blizzard.
Duke finds himself a little befuddled wading through the deep snow in Connecticut.
Sometimes you just have to blend in!
The Day after the Blizzard
Rooftops dripped in melting snow - like icing on a bundt cake as
the temperature starts to climb and we slowly get back to normal.
Snow totals broke records in many areas of the northeast with interesting videos and images splashed cross social media and the news. Brooklyn picked up 16-22 inches of whirling, twirling, blowing snow by the time it ended.
The storm was referred to as ... Winter Storm Hernando by the weather channel, a hurricane, a Nor'easter, a blizzard (depending on wind speed), snowmageddon 2026, and a bomb cyclone - setting records along the way - and affecting businesses, schools, transportation, and just about everything in its path.
Daily life paused as nature staged a full-scale winter spectacle - fierce, cinematic, and unforgettable - carving its name into the record books and human memory as another historic storm in a year ending in "6".
