A close-up of ice floes that became stacked on the Hudson River (Sleepy Hollow, New York)—January 30, 2014. The January 21-30, 2014 timeframe saw the temperature average 20.00°F (-6.67°C) in New York City. That was the coldest 10-day period since January 21-30, 2005 when the temperature averaged 19.95°F (-6.69°C). As a result, numerous streams, ponds, and lakes iced up, some developing sufficiently thick ice to allow for outdoor skating.
