7-12 inches of snow in a major city. You expect certain things, but our new city home continues to find ways to surprise us … here are some things that made us smile:
- Don’t have enough snow plows? So what. NYC handles large snow storms by attaching huge plows to their trash trucks. Makes sense to use what you have. Brilliant.
- Cancel schools? Well … it is a pretty big snow storm, so ok. But this was the first time in 5 years. Wow.
- Mayor says some other surprising things in his press release … if you go out, ask your neighbors if they need anything; if you’re in 5th grade, math tests are rescheduled until Wednesday; and then summarized key points in Spanish for those who are more comfortable with the Spanish language.
- City parks feel differently about snow days … come out and play! Each borough names one park with sledding and free hot cocoa!
