No way I was going outside to shoot this, but I like what I was able to get from home:
1,2. The first thing I saw when I looked out the window on Thursday morning: a car with its trunk open and no one around. These were taken at 8:41am and 9:30am. You can see that the storm has intensified during that period and that the interior trunk snowfall accumulation has increased. An hour later, the car was gone................too bad.
3. Artistic arrangement courtesy of the Sanitation Department
4. Unused potential traction helper (is that a front-wheel drive car?)
5. Frozen river
6. Frozen person
7. Frozen engine
8. Some serious wind managed to push snow between my inside and outside roof doors.
9,10. Two days after #8, this is what was on the outside door. The last time I saw that was during the polar vortex in January, 2014.
11. Awwwwwww...............
12,13. Favorite mini-sequence: Someone parked a shopping cart in the municipal lot. Two days later, it was still there and the snowplows went around it, just like they did for every other 4-wheeled parked vehicle. Two days after THAT (today), it hasn't moved an inch.
14. Late addition (misplaced it): I saw this super-cool fashionista when it was super-cold outside and sandwiched him around what wunderground.com was posting at that moment (ZERO wind-chill).
As usual, click to enlarge.
