NYC mayor: Storm could be biggest ever to hit New York

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio says the snowstorm bearing down on the U.S. Northeast could be the biggest ever to hit the city.

The National Weather Service has a blizzard warning in effect for the New York and Boston areas starting Monday night. Forecasters say a massive storm could drop two to three feet (60 to 90 centimeters) of snow from northern New Jersey to southern Connecticut.

Boston is expected to get 18 to 24 inches (45 to 60 centimeters) of snow, and Philadelphia could see 14 to 18 inches (35 to 45 centimeters).

At a news conference Sunday, De Blasio held up a list of the city's top 10 snowstorms and said this one could land at the top of a list that goes back to 1872. (***)
