Snow too high for school? Some students think so after hearing Mayor Bloomberg declared New York City Public Schools open on February 11th, 2010. Snow is expected to continue until early tomorrow morning. Blizzard warnings are in effect until 6 AM. In the evening hours of February 10th, 2010, snow is still too high in some areas of New York City to commute to school safely. Snow fall ranges from 8 inches to over a foot of snow. Certain roads have not been plowed leading to a higher chance of car accidents. But don’t take my word for it. I’m lucky to live in Brooklyn where the snow is reasonable for school. Many of my own friends living in parts of New York City such as Staten Island are complaining that the snow is too high to commute to school safely. Not even a 2 hour delayed was issued to allow for more time to commute to school.

    I do not know where to properly say this, but I just want to say that the images should saved as a gif, png, or jpg and not BMP, as it is an uncompressed format and thus has a really large and inefficient file size.
