[Updated] There is an M14 stuck on Avenue A at this moment

[@caitlynlevan]

At this point, we're not sure exactly what happened here on Avenue A near East 11th Street. Other than that the bus is stuck, and the MTA is on the scene to help make it unstuck. No word on injuries.

And now, photos of snow for people who like photos of snow

If you tuned into The Weather Channel (or any media outlet) the last 72 hours, then you probably knew that ~~we were going to buried alive by the worst blizzard ever, oh save us Jim Cantore!~~ some snow was expected in the area.

It did snow. Maybe what, 6 or 8 inches? Here are some random photos of that from this morning.
