Unexpected Cold Snap

MANHATTAN — An unexpected cold snap has rolled in along the Lower East Side, spreading slowly over the island of Manhattan over the course of a few hours. Previously predicted temperatures have taken an unexpected downturn, combined with darkly overcast skies and equally unexpected showers of near freezing temperature making for a rather bleak, grey forecast. The freezing rain is unusual, but not unheard of - so motorists and commuters, please make sure to dress warm and for secure footing!
