How often does New York subways get cancelled by cold weather?

score:11

Accepted answer

New York City subway service has only been interrupted once for snow in 110 years, and the decision to do so was criticized when the snowstorm actually dropped far less snow than expected.

It was also interrupted for Hurricane Sandy, back in 2012, but that was actually a well-advised closure.

You're extremely unlikely to see a system-wide service interruption, but individual services may be delayed or cancelled due to accidents, mechanical problems or the like. You can get information on service advisories from the MTA website or Twitter feed, or by email or SMS.
