An Old Fashioned Winter
The Daily News says that we're in for an old–fashioned winter. Though NYC won't likely see snowfall like last winter's 4 feet, meteorologists hesitate to guess how much we're getting, lest we take their word for it. One reason for the prognostication hesistation is that this season the area has been seeing more jet streams, leading to questionable weather. (We're just nodding our heads along as we try to bypass slush puddles.) The Mayor is probably devising a "sun dance" to summon warmer weather, as it costs $1 million to remove each inch of snow.
In the mean time, we'll enjoy the photographs of others who braved the snow.

...i guess the photo answers holden caulfield's question about where nyc ducks go in the winter.
now i know the meaning of life. hoo-ray!
the snow helped out my pictures down here as well. a pooped out battery on a snowless night forced me to return to the subject the next. the subject was then new and improved with all that white crap.
add mine to the list if you like. pictures of times square and les. more to come tonight or tomorrow
