I think the local weather forecasters underestimated the snow - at least, here in Brooklyn. Yesterday, they were saying the whole NYC area would get "a coating to an inch," and that the snow would mostly stick on unpaved surfaces. It looks like a bit more than that from my window. And it's sticking to the roads, sidewalks, cars, etc. A little while ago, the wind was so strong that the snow was blowing horizontally.

They're saying that within a couple of days,the temperature here will be in the high 50's. Well, that's good; at least all the snow and slush should melt.
