Snow falls, fast and furious, in Brooklyn today, making the landmarked front gate of Green-Wood Cemetery look like a castle in Fairyland.

Niko In Bay Ridge

Welcome to Bay Ridge! The town’s quaint sign, shown below, is a great color contrast to the near whiteout conditions all over Brooklyn.

Trying hard to keep the sidewalk clear despite a blizzard going on.

A couple out for a stroll in the snow, walking arm in arm in front of Century 21 on 86th Street.

A lot of one-way streets in Bay Ridge are still waiting to be plowed.
