Blizzard Slams Northeast with Heavy Snow, Disrupting Travel
Several cities across the Northeast received at least two feet of snow, bringing many places to a standstill.
“I hope our students enjoy their snow day today and stay warm and safe throughout, but I do have some tough news to share. School will be in-person tomorrow. You can still pelt me with snowballs when you see me.” “It’s probably about the worst I’ve seen. I mean, I was here with the last big storm. I think that was where in 2016 or something. But it wasn’t as bad as this. And the problem is, when the plows come past, they just throw up all the snow. And there’s going to be a big bank here later. So I’m digging it out now to get rid of some of this.” “I do ski patrol on the Lower East Side. I like to check the parks, and sometimes I find people fall in the snow and they can’t get up, like a elderly gentleman went out in his pajamas to get a quart of milk. So, things like that.” “And if you can cook at home, please do so instead of ordering food to be delivered given the conditions. Make an enormous pot of soup and bring some to your neighbors upstairs.”
