I'd love to go but just thinking of NYC in February cold and snow I don't know. This was out of my backdoor in March of 2015 and I'm just south of Louisville KY .

Damn I still want to go and take my chances but my wife says wait for SoCal. I am conflicted.

The warmest jacket that I own is my high school Letterman's jacket - I'll just layer up, add a thick beanie and I should be okay.

You know, of course, the Super Bowl is that Sunday. I'll do my best to make it there, though...(get back to Jersey on time for kick off)

You know this is Manhattan.  Your only time outside is up the subway stairs and walking the 50 steps inside...

Are a lot of the buildings connected, like an inside plaza of sorts? I'm wondering since this would be my first time outside of the NY airports and inside NYC.

Thank you (or anyone else who responds) in advance.

I don't think one can generally avoid outdoors in Manhattan totally. You may have to walk some from the subway. Bring a warm coat.

Expect cold. Snow is usually not a big issue in Manhattan. The streets and sidewalks are generally clear in most of Manhattan within about 48 hours after a big storm. However, giant lakes of slush can last a long while, so boots are a good idea if it has snowed.

No, most building are not connected. There are some, but most are not advertised, you have to be in the know. The hotel for the event is close to the subway though.

Bought my plane ticket. Looking forward to going. Don't worry about the weather guys. I've been to NYC twice before during Feb for fashion week and the weather is fine as long as you have a decent jacket. I never saw any snow.

You should know then. :wink: It does snow in NYC in February and *can* be bitter cold. I do agree with you that it is not really something to worry about. We get less snow than Boston. However, if you are worried, allow me to feed your fears: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/13/nyregion/a-record-snow-269-inches-fall-in-new-york-city.html

It ain't Southern California or Florida, that's for sure!
