We had dinner in last night, and watched the white flakes falling. At midnight Michelle & Liz went out to Times Square. There were large snowdrifts all over, still a few cars driving around - no chains. The snow was still falling, it fell until 4am.
In the morning the sky was clear and all around was white. The cars were still driving, slowly, single lane. Saw many people digging out their cars as they got stuck driving along or had been parked on the roadside. The wind came up and was blowing snow off the tops of buildings.
Our 11am flight to Montreal was canceled, we were moved to a 1pm flight, which was then canceled, as was the following 3pm flight. At this stage we are on a flight at 5.30pm. So currently we are waiting to see if the airport is reopened at 4pm.
It is the second largest December snowstorm since 1896! Certainly some record to be here for.....The wind is stronger now than it has been during the snowfall. It is whistling around the windows here on the 19th floor. It is -4 outside, with the wind chill -12C.
