When the temperature dipped below zero in Central Park Sunday morning, it was the coldest the city has been since 1994, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Nelson Vaz.

“This is actually quite a rare occurrence,” Vaz told WCBS 880’s Ginny Kosola.

According to Vaz, today’s temperatures also boasted an even more impressive cold-weather record for Valentine’s Day in Central Park, breaking the record low of two degrees in 1916
