Holiday Blizzard 2009

blizzard snow covers hydrant dec 2009

Yesterday, there was a blizzard that brought in high winds, bitter cold, and lots of snow. This morning, there were sounds of shovels hitting the concrete and asphalt, as homeowners were up early cleaning the snow.

In front of P.S. 254, the custodial staff was out with their snow blower. The picture above shows the snow cleaned off into a wall-like fortress and a hydrant tower sticking out.

Enjoy the white stuff while it’s still a little soft, Sheepshead Bay — because, by tomorrow it will either be brown and slushy or frozen ice.

    This is not a Holiday Blizzard Ray.

    A Holiday Blizzard must actually take place on or during a Holiday. That would be next weekend or the week after, or Thanksgiving Weekend.

    Channuka doesn’t even count because that ended Friday. ^_^.

    Hehe.

    This photo is of Avenue Y between East 19th and East 18th? I had no idea the building across the street was so long. The perspective in this picture emphasizes that.

    I only have some really lousy pictures I took last night. The flash kept bouncing off the snow, regardless of what settings I used.

    Arthur: Sorry I couldn’t get back to you, sooner. I was busy celebrating the holiday.
