End Times

As we rung in 2007, Brad and I were stranded in Colorado for nearly 3 days thanks to snow storms that blanketed the deserts of New Mexico like I never could have imagined. Less than a week later, having returned to Brooklyn, we experienced a taste spring fever when temperatures topped 70˚ on January 6th. And now, only 4 days later, I looked out the window this morning and saw the first snow flurries of the season.

Apparently, the few minutes of snow flakiness I witnessed was the latest recorded first snow in New York City in 129 years. What's going on?
