Storm center: Scenes from around the East Village after Nor’easter moves off the coast

For those of us who were here, it will be a winter storm discussed for generations, as more than three inches of snow fell in Central Park, the most since 2022. (We forgot to measure how much fell closer to home.)
By late this afternoon, there were widespread reports of damp sidewalks, soggy cardboard in broken recycling bags and photogenic puddles...
Meanwhile, any wet or untreated roadway will likely ice over tonight as temperatures drop below freezing. So try to stay within the salt path on the side streets...
So while the winter storm warnings turned out to be a non-event around Manhattan, other local areas and states were hit hard... and we heard from a few people who had their flights delayed or canceled. 

Soon, back to the "Remembering When It Snowed" posts.
