Winter Storm Toby

Winter Storm Toby hit New York today, March 21. It's the fourth winter storm this month. First time I've seen so many winter storms in a month. It looks like we have one line up every week. In fact, I heard there's another one coming next week; right on time for Easter weekend.

The snow was not impressive in the morning, but it was steady. By noon, we had about an inch or so. It then looked like it's going to taper off. I figure the kids should be in school if that's all it got. But then, I got a day off too. So after I shovel the snow, I took my children to Elmhurst Park to take some pictures. It started snow again big again as we got to the park. We only stayed for about 30 minutes because it was snowing hard. Since the temperature wasn't actually low, it was around 35F, the snow are melting on our coat and on my camera. We left then since I didn't want my camera soaked in water.
