With a couple hours to go before this storm wraps up, and it looks like Central Park will set an all time record later this evening. Those records date back to 1860s. So yeah, this is a pretty historic storm.

But lest we forget, this storm is affecting nearly 1/3 of the nation from TN/KY up to Boston Massachusetts.

And when you talk about storms like this, the NESIS comes to mind - the northeast storm intensity scale. It measures the kind of impact a storm has - combining population affected with how much snow drops plus geographic data.

This storm is a whopper on that scale IMO.
