Not real suprising considering the fact that the northeast US got so much snow. Does anyone know what aircraft it is?

As far as I heard it was a THY A340. Glad to hear there was no casualty.

Good to hear nobody was hurt, but did the plane suffer damage in this incident?

On the registration of the ATC, we can hear a plane called for a go-around and further planes called to land on runway 4L instead of 31L.
