The snowstorm that beat the records

The heavens opened here yesterday and over two feet of snow fell in what felt like a few minutes. The biggest snow fall in recorded history.

Some photos of the event - Central Park and Second Avenue. One of my favourite moments was a vox pop interview with some disgruntled commuter on local television. 'I was in Great Britain once when it snowed - everything worked like clockwork. Why can't it be like that here?'

It didn't go like clockwork when it snowed last December in Kent in the SE of Britain.

C'm'n, Ian, it worked like snowed-up clockwork.
