The northeastern United States is slowly recovering on Wednesday from the heavy snowstorm that dumped more than 12 inches in some states yesterday, forcing some offices to close and disturbing commuting and flights. In New York City, snowfall varied from nine inches in the Bronx to more than a foot in Queens, but a hundred percent of the main roads have been cleared, making the city safer for New Yorkers to move around. As a result, Public and Catholic schools were ordered to open today. Although the storm is over, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio advised residents to continue to be careful because of the dangerous weather conditions. "Stay off the roads if you can stay off the roads. We got a lot of cleaning up to do, so the best thing is, if you do not need to use your car, don't use your car. If you have the option of mass transit, use it. It's also cold out, no prolonged exposure. If you go outside, keep it as brief as possible," he said. In the meantime, The National Weather Service forecast wind gusts over 30 miles p/hour (48 km/h) along the East coast, and temperatures below ten degrees Fahrenheit (minus 12 Celsius) in most of the New York Metropolitan area. The snowstorm is forecast to return on Saturday.
