Winter storm Jonas is battering the East Coast with 'life-threatening blizzard conditions' and powerful winds A travel ban is in full effect until 7am Sunday in New York - while neighboring New Jersey battles floods - as winter storm Jonas battered the East coast with 'life-threatening' blizzard conditions. Thousands who live in the coastal communities in New Jersey and Delaware are being affected by tides higher than when Hurricane Sandy occurred thanks to the blizzard. National Weather Service meteorologist Patrick O'Hara said tides higher than those caused by the horrific storm three years ago pushed water on to roads along the Jersey Shore and Delaware coast and set records in Cape May, New Jersey, and Lewes, Delaware on Saturday. The intense blizzard of 2016 went down in the history books for New York City as the second largest snowstorm ever with 26.8 inches being dumped in the city.
