Taking a break from weather statistics and analyses, here's a gallery of this winter's snowfalls in New York as captured through the lens of my smartphone. (There have been eight snowfalls thru mid-March - oops, I slipped a statistic in there!)
0.4" of snow fell the evening of Dec. 11
Snow in lamp light on Barrow St. (Dec. 4)
