In the tri-state, some will get a White Christmas and some will fall just short. Christmas Eve’s morning snow totaled near an inch in many places near the coast with higher totals – between 2 and 3 inches – for northwest New Jersey into the Catskills and Hudson Valley.

The National Weather Service says snow depth in Central Park was 1 inch at 7 a.m. Christmas morning. That's the minimum amount of snow needed to make it officially a White Christmas.

Seven people were injured, including a child, when a taxi crashed into pedestrians on a sidewalk near Herald Square in New York City on Christmas Day. The accident happened next to the iconic Macy’s department store on the corner of West 34th Street and the Avenue of the Americas in Midtown Manhattan shortly after 4pm.

In addition to the 58-year-old taxi driver, the injured included a 9-year-old boy, two women aged 49 and four other women aged 19, 37 and 41, NYPD said
