Here we go.
Let's start with Astoria, particularly Astoria Park, our favorite spot.

| It looks sunny and nice but it was minus 5 F at that time..super cold |
And of course, we still had to clean the snow stuck on our car and the pathway behind the house. The kids really enjoyed doing it but we couldn't stay too long because it was too cold.
Right after Grayson storm on Thursday, we all were back to school and the office on Friday.
As expected, the streets were filled with piles of snow (some of them are obviously dirty)
You can see how Astoria and most probably the other parts of Queens look much nicer with clean, white snow pile, while Manhattan is the other way around.
Well, the City really tries to clean up all those snow so they did that right after the snow stopped.
The Department of Sanitation has done tremendous jobs indeed but it's just too much to handle all this mess at the same time for sure.
And I heard that we might have another round of blizzards and storms.
Embrace yourself, New York City.
Join us on (almost) Wordless Wednesday and enjoy the linky party :)
It's pretty though. We're supposed to get hit hard on Wednesday night. It snowed right before Christmas too.
ReplyDeleteIt was all messy but nothing new, Alissa...for the last three years it's been like this every January :)
DeleteLooks soooooo cold! Beautiful though.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2018, Indah!
Happy 2018...and stay warm, mbaaa
DeleteIt's so pretty in the country, but I think it's not so much when it gets all dirty in the city. Our street crews are having a hard time keeping up with our snow too, but today's weather seems to be helping to melt it somewhat. I'm so over winter already!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could say I'm over with winter, Theresa..it's just started here..
DeleteLovely photos when that happens in London UK everything comes to a standstill with any extreme weather we can't cope with any LOL :-)
ReplyDeleteI prefer staying at home as well..
Deleteit's funny how you're experiencing the coldest, and we here in central Europe the warmest winter ever. They say we won't even have snow all winter long and no subzero temps which is good for my heating bills
ReplyDeleteLucky you! Better have warm days than freezing ones :)
