The day after Christmas it was white. And now the city (and Park Slope) is snowed in! The airports are a mess and many subway lines are in disarray (check the NY Times Blizzard Transportation Guide for info). It doesn’t look like there’s been any plowing as yet. In Park Slope anyway.
People are staying in. It’s cold and windy outside and the TV and radio stations are urging people to stay close to home. I was just outside and it was actually quite lovely on snow-packed Third Street. Yes, it’s cold but the snow is beautiful and if you’re dressed properly…
One neighbor ventured to take out the garbage. A boy in the building next door walked his dog (the dog seemed to be quite excited by snow).
Quiet day in the Slope. Snow covered, white. A good excuse to stay under the covers and relax.
i live on 82nd street in brooklyn, off 24th ave. a car has been stuck in the snow since sunday evening in front of my driveway unabling my car from coming out of the driveway. if an emergency vehicle has to get down this block it would be impossible. if an emergency vehicle came in from 23rd ave. it would get stuck in the unplowed street. i am absolutely disgusted with the service bensonhurst is receiving during this storm. we have lived here for 32 years and have never encounted such a total lack of service to the area.
