Unfathomable Weather in NY

Queens, NY

Absolutely stunning weather, this APRIL day in Queens.
Starting out as rain, it suddenly shifted to snow. I
happened to have my camera with me after going to a
school event for my kids. On the way home, this
incredible blizzard erupted! I wouldn't let hubby go
home. LOL! We drove around the neighborhood to take
advantage of the amazing opportunity. I have never,
in my lifetime, witnessed a scene like this before!
It was truly a gift from Nature.

It was a miracle. I was just squealing with delight like a child winning a chance to run thru a toystore and grab all the toys he can in 3 minutes! :) ~ Lonnit

:-) When I first glanced at the thumbnail, I thought something along the lines of "pity, it seems as if the highlights are all blown out". :-)

But now I obviously realise what I saw on the ground. Snow is not a common thing where I live, so I envy you for having had the opportunity of photographing this "miracle in pink and white". ~jnconradie

Thanks. Here's to global warming? LOL! Every cloud has a silver lining. ;) ~ Lonnit, the optimist!
