    I was in that storm. It was my first visit to New York from England. I think me and my two friends I went with where the only ones happy about the storm. We were supposed to be flying back home and back to work but our flight was cancelled due to the weather. So we had to email our bosses and say that we had to stay in New York for another couple of days. It was great :D. We just bought loads of booze and got drunk in our friends apartment. Ah the memories :)

  • @BradThePitts

    An interesting thing about this time lapse is that the camera is facing east. Due to the jet stream, the weather almost always passes over New York City from west to east, which means that the clouds are normally moving away from the camera view. Atlantic hurricanes spin counter-clockwise and that's why in the beginning of the video the clouds are moving from left to right - an unusual site for anyone native to the Tri-state area.
