There's still a bus stuck at 14th Street and First Avenue
Today in post-blizzard photos of the East Village
To be honest, this is more for the benefit of residents who are marooned elsewhere or vacationing somewhere warm (fuckers!) ... Um, several people who are out of town asked me what it's like out there today. Here is my report.
Getting to the curb/street remains challenging at certain corners...
...a police van got stuck here at Avenue A and Seventh Street... Some guy walked buy, and in a Nelson Muntz way, pointed and said, "Ha, ha!"
...people are having snow sex...
...and leaving their boots behind.

What the East Village was like today
Snow scenes from the FDR and Avenue D
EV Grieve roving Blizzard reporter Bobby Williams noted the condition of the FDR (at Sixth Street) this evening around 5:15ish...
...while a police car seems to be abandoned on Avenue D....

How bad is it out there now?
Just how many buses are stuck now on Avenue A?
Six buses, per a count a little earlier this morning by EV Grieve reader Brett...
In addition to a bus, there are several cabs stranded at 13th Street and Avenue A. The bus has been here last night at 10:30, per reader Kristin.

Why you won't be getting anywhere by bus today
Samo sends along a photo of another stuck bus — this one on Avenue A at Third Street. Samo notes the driver is inside reading a book.
Previously on EV Grieve:
Avenue A now an M14 graveyard

There are currently two M14 buses stranded on Avenue A — one at Ninth Street the other at 10th Street...
The bus at Ninth Street appears to be empty... but the driver is still in his bus at 10th Street... A reader said that he has been there now for 12 hours, stuck, waiting for help. The reader brought the driver a protein bar and apple. Another resident brought the driver coffee.
Updated: A reader says there's another bus stranded on 14th Street and First Avenue.

A post-blizzard walk around Tompkins Square Park
Took a walk around Tompkins Square Park this morning. Not much going on! Given the drifting, difficult to say just how much snow is on the ground — 16 to 22 inches, maybe?
We're not done with this blizzard yet
We have some more photos from last night's Blizzard Action... thanks to Vivienne Gucwa for these ... check out more of her work at New York - Through the Lens.
