Princeton's Winter Wonderland
It snowed! Or rather, it's snowing... a lot. According to our ruler, we've received about six inches of snow so far. Which means ... snow day!!! Oh, wait, it's Saturday. And Princeton doesn't do snow days for a measly six inches. Cass Cliatt, Princeton's spokesperson, tells us that campus has only closed three times due to weather conditions in the past 15 years. So let's not all cross our fingers too soon.(Although we would recommend calling if you're going anywhere on Nassau. We know Labyrinth's closed today, and Panera's got weird hours, so save yourself a snow-trudge and call ahead.)Still, it's an impressive amount of snow. The historic blizzard is sweeping from Virginia to southern Pennsylvania and central Jersey, leaving as much as two feet of snow in some locations. We can't expect that much, but we'll get a few more inches before the day is over.Between this blizzard and the epic storm that hit in December, we concede that winter does exist in New Jersey. We may get more snow and have far chillier temperatures in my native state of Michigan -- but New Jersey can still hold its own.And did anyone notice that all the walks and stairways were magically plowed and shoveled by 10:30 a.m.? The easier for you to slip and fall, guys!
