CARROLL STREET SNOW

I KNOW this blog contains an inordinate number of references to the weather. I blame my mother for my obsession. But this morning I don't feel too self-conscious about posting a small video of our street, filmed from the stoop at about 6.30am. Everything is covered in about 12 inches of powder; the schools have closed for the day because "near white-out" conditions are forecast for later. It's 9.30am now, and it's still coming down heavily. An e-mail earlier told us to use our own judgment when deciding whether to go to the office or stay at home.
