In Rivas v. New York City Housing Authority (261 AD2d 148 [1st Dept 1999]), the court held that using climatological data, plaintiff established that defendant had constructive notice of the defect alleged, namely, a patch of ice. The court noted that the climatological reports established that it had snowed several days prior to plaintiff's accident, that some snow remained on the ground thereafter, and that the temperatures remained below freezing, which evidence was sufficient to establish that a defendant had constructive notice of the ice patch alleged and had sufficient to time to discover and remedy the same (id.)
