Some two feet of snow covered Crown Heights over Shabbos and once it ended many began digging out while others seized the opportunity to enjoy the snow.

On Yud Shvat, students of all departments of Bais Rivkah-Montreal were involved in special programs. Three busloads of elementary students (in addition to a number of students who walked), visited senior citizens’ homes throughout the city, to bring simcha, words of encouragement and the message of Hakhel.
The predictions were all true – and then some, over 20 inches of snow has been dumped by winter storm Jonas and is not expected to stop until late Saturday night. Three people have died in Staten Island and Queens and there were more then 300 reported car crashes. A full travel ban has been in effect since 2:30pm today.
The evil inclination comes up with all sorts of distractions to try to take a person away from the service of Hashem.
