Crown Heights gets hit with 10 inches of snow!

Since Shabbos afternoon it has been snowing with no sign of letting up, now at 7:00am it still does not seem to slow down at all, and there are places with accumulation of about 10 inches of snow!

City snow plows prioritize which streets get plowed and those are main routes like Eastern Parkway and Empire Blvd. then goes the Avenues like Kingston and Brooklyn, and then goes the streets.

    Does the responsibility of clearing the snow in front of 770 belong to anyone? It just doesn’t look nice, plus, if it gets really cold, the snow will turn to ice.

    all you montrealers! you’re right you get more snow then us but you guys have trucks cleaning the SIDEWALKS never mind the streets. And it’s not just 10 inches it’s over 20. That is a lot especially when not everyone is shoveling. Have a nice day
