Winter storm Jonas was the largest snowfall on record for New York City. With two feet of snow falling from the sky in a matter of hours, the sky and the ground were just white fluffy blurs. I went out with my camera to document the event, and here are some pictures.

As you can see some other people were out and about braving the blizzard, but this is a far cry from the busy streets of Brooklyn on a regular Saturday. Traffic and pedestrian signs were ignored more than usual.

I had a hard enough time getting around on foot, but there were even a couple of cars trying to make it through the snow.

By far the most fun was had at the park, however, where Brooklynites made use of the blizzarmeggedon (you’re welcome, previously untitled metal bands) to do snow sports and otherwise enjoy the weather.
