Narrative:
J80 was closed due to weather. I was told by tmu (traffic management unit) and the receiving area that the jet way was close. I called N90 and told them the J80 was closed and traffic continued to be released on J80. The receiving area said they were not taking traffic so I told my controllers not to take J80 traffic and stopped taking hand offs from N90. J80 was closed for almost an hour and traffic was still being released on it. I believe the towers should be advised sooner; and reroutes issued faster; to avoid having to hold aircraft; or reroute them once their airborne.
