Old man winter wasted no time at all over the weekend. We had another Nor'easter roll in, which basically dumps a crap ton of snow in a fairly short amount of time. It's been chilly here the past week so sticking to the ground was no problem. Snow started late Saturday afternoon while we were in the city, and by the time we left for a party that evening it had grown to five inches or more. I even broke out my snow pants to wear to the party - zzzhuupp zhzhzuupp zzhuuppp zzhuupp all the way there, which luckily was only a few blocks away. Blizzard continued throughout the party and into the night, and the snow continued to pile away.
Here's a clip I put together from before and after the party:

By morning, the snow had stopped, netting us around 8 to 12 inches, with snow drifts up to 3 feet, depending on how the wind blew. And everyone was playing the move the snow game, which is much tougher when you've got nowhere to go with it. Walked around in it for a bit and it was an awesome site. Snow felt like corn starch, all eee eee eee eee. I love how the snow mutes the city.

Love the Jeep with no top in the video. The craziest part of your video? Only one other car and no other people out. Who knew Brooklyn could be so quiet?
Yeah it was that awesome silence with very few cars attempting to drive. Saw a few taxis barreling up the hill on the main street, but it was otherwise super chill quiet.
