In spite of the reports, hypes and fears, there actually wasn't much snowfall in the city yesterday - just about an inch - though we did see some sleet that quickly melted. The suburbs got a few inches of snow, while much of the accumulation was in Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
However, area airports did have a number of delays and canceled flights (many airlines canceled them due to ice conditions, as well as concerns about delays from other airports). Airlines such as JetBlue, Delta and Continental will be waiving "change fees and fare differences to help passengers affected by the bad weather from now until next Tuesday".
Still, a Nor'easter is expected to come late Saturday, into Sunday, due to a storm in the Atlantic.
