New York Gov. Kathy Hochul : "I want to let them know we are there with reinforcements and to make sure everyone can travel safely" Forecasters say "travel could be difficult to impossible" in places where ongoing snowfall is forecast through the beginning of the week .

Nearly 2 feet of snow fell in parts of New York , Ohio and Michigan and 29 inches was recorded in Pennsylvania 's northwestern tip.

A blast of Arctic air brought bitter temperatures of 10 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit below average to the Northern Plains .

The previous record of 17 inches was set March 9, 1942 .

The snowfall was good news for Treetops Resort , which features 80 acres of ski hill terrain.

It boosted the base that snowmaking machines will increase before the resort's season opening next weekend .

"Obviously when you get that much snowfall, it's great for the snow hills, but it's bad for the parking lots," recreation director says.
