Flurry of fluff
Light snow dusts the city
The city saw a sudden winter chill this week, as light snow covered the streets, bringing a pause to the usual rush hour bustle.

Wednesday morning’s below-freezing temperatures, followed by a powdery snow, arrived several hours ahead of schedule and lingered well into the evening.
