The Great New York Snowpocalypse of... May 29th? (Spoiler: It Wasn't That Great)
Did you wake up this morning expecting to dig your car out of a snowdrift and instead find yourself inexplicably craving a beach vacation? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're here to discuss the non-existent snowstorm that apparently decided to grace, or should we say disgrace, New York City with its presence... yesterday.
Yes, Yesterday. You Read That Right.
That's right, folks. Weather reports were predicting a winter wonderland and all we got was a slightly confused robin chirping out of season. Don't get us wrong, a snow day in May would have been epic (and by epic, we mean a social media frenzy of people rediscovering their winter coats and complaining about shoveling for, like, two whole minutes). But alas, Mother Nature clearly got her calendars mixed up.
So How Much Snow Did We Actually Get?
Cue the dramatic drumroll... absolutely none. Nada. Zilch. New York City saw all the snowfall excitement of a sugar-free popsicle. Central Park looked more like a green picnic blanket than a winter wonderland. The only thing getting plowed this morning was your disappointment at the lack of a snow day.
But hey, at least we can all take comfort in the fact that we don't have to spend our morning chipping ice off our windshields. Small victories, people!
