Snow Storm 2017: Photos From Around The Island

The first snow storm of 2017 is upon us, with parts of Long Island accumulating between 12 and 18 inches of snow. Nassau and Suffolk residents stayed home from work and school today watching the winter weather take hold. Here are some photos and videos of Mother Nature’s handiwork.

Blizzard?! What blizzard? All I see is an opportunity to go outside & have some fun! (As I ran through town somebody yelled out through the wind, "You're running in this?!" My response? "There's never a bad time to run!") #timetoplay #freshtracks #toughmudder #adventuretime
