A reward for those who resisted the urge to stare out their windows all night Friday to watch the proverbial pot boil: this timelapse of Nemo in Astoria gives you the climax of three days of built-up snow anxiety in 90 seconds. See if you can catch the plow at 1:07.
The Wall Street Journal also made a totally, like, corporate timelapse of the storm on Sixth Avenue in Manhattan.
A timelapse we'd like to see: a streetcorner's rapid descent from fluffy white thoroughfare to grey slushy frown to the exhaust-riddled, black, slimy nightmare we all know is coming by Tuesday. Make it happen!
