The Great New York City Snow**...Wait, What?**
Did you wake up this morning expecting to build a snowman in Central Park? Did you dust off your snow boots in a pre-apocalyptic frenzy only to be greeted by sunshine? Well, fret not, fellow New Yorkers, because the answer to the question on everyone's mind (well, maybe not everyone's) is this: New York City received approximately zero point zero inches of snow yesterday.
That's right, folks. Mother Nature decided to play a cruel joke, teasing us with the possibility of a winter wonderland before delivering a reality check in the form of a crisp spring day.

| How Much Snow Did New York City Get Yesterday |
But Wait, There's More! (Because There Always Is)
For those of you residing in the far-flung reaches of the five boroughs, fear not! Your fringe-dwelling brethren may have gotten a slightly more exciting experience. Reports indicate a dusting in some areas, with whispers of a whole snowflake or two in others.
Here's a quick and totally unscientific breakdown:
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
- Central Park: More like Central Park-ing lot, with nary a snowflake in sight.
- Upper West Side: Residents reported a vague sense of disappointment, possibly due to the lack of snow or the absence of a decent bagel.
- Staten Island: Unconfirmed rumors of a single snowflake sighting, but this could be due to overconsumption of disco fries.
Important Note: The above information is purely for entertainment purposes and should not be taken as gospel.
So, What Do We Do Now?
Well, now that you've donned your snow boots in vain, you have a few options:
- Embrace the sunshine! Head to a park, have a picnic, pretend you're on a beach (just don't wear a swimsuit, that would be weird).
- Channel your inner Elsa and build a "snowman" out of sand. It won't win any awards, but hey, it'll keep the kids entertained.
- Stock up on rock salt. You never know when a rogue snowstorm might decide to grace us with its presence. (Just kidding...mostly.)
