A spring snow falls upon Bushwick

Thunder sleet and snow is certainly not an everyday occurrence in New York City, but that is exactly what happened earlier tonight.

Here are three pictures and a clip I shot around 9 p.m. as a burst of heavy snow approached the area. And yes, that is a tag scrawled onto the camper van parked across the street from my building on Jefferson Street. Only in Bushwick...

Another Boston snowmance of sorts

My latest trip to Boston did not feature a blizzard-induced transportation meltdown, but the deep snow pack certainly reminded me why I should have stayed in Chile.

Here are some pictures I took around Boston on Sunday, Jan. 30.

Light snow coats New York City

A band of light snow that coated the city earlier tonight provided a particularly festive reminder of the season.

The flakes were falling when I left a holiday party on West 35th Street in Manhattan around 8 p.m. Shoppers seemed rather oblivious to the snow as they hurried into Macy's, but a small coating of snow had already accumulated on Jefferson Street when I left the subway around 9:15 p.m.

Here is a clip I shot from my bedroom window around 10:30 p.m.
