The day before the snowstorm. On the 25th, it snowed ALL day!!
Days after the snowstorm, you can see that snow had turned to ice (white). Mounds of ugly looking ice appeared in many areas. Could be due to the many buses that stop in the area and the constant traffic. Queens Blvd next to Queens Center Mall

Most of the puzzle completed. Souley said it looks like a guitar. This puzzle took longer than usual to complete!!
