Cuomo says New Yorkers should stay inside Saturday and avoid driving.
City and state officials said the ban applies to all motor travel except for government or medical emergency vehicles.
More than 700 flights have been canceled for Saturday at LaGuardia Airport, while about 450 have been canceled at John F. Kennedy International Airport, according to the Port Authority.
There have reportedly been more than 1,000 traffic accidents and 800 disabled vehicles on Virginia roads. Three New York City deaths were attributed to the blizzard. Jones said that an “extremely high” tide and strong winds “really pushed the water up from the ocean onto the streets”. In Kentucky, thousands of motorists became stranded overnight on a backup along a 35 mile (56 kilometer) ice-slickened stretch of Interstate 75, and remained trapped on the road early Saturday.
