There was also snow in northern Jersey from around 11 to 1. Then the sky was magically sunny with clouds afterwards. The End.

i'll wait for 01:02:03 4/5/67

I saw it snowing outside, and you know what was my first thought? "I bet the line at Shake Shack is short today." And it was. In fact, the line was non-existant. It should snow every day!

Forget hurricane warnings.

Bizzare weather + maple syrup smell = candycane?

No Need to fear - There was a similar strange sky color I noticed last year http://www.flickr.com/photos/bosstweed/15808964/in/set-372262/

Oscar: What do you want to drink?

Myrna: What do you have?

Oscar: Brown juice and green juice.

Myrna: What's the difference?

Oscar: Two weeks.

I'm in agreement with Dan on the European date. But I'm not really impressed with the 123456 thing. I rather go for 1:23:45 6/7/89. You don't have that stinky 0 in front of the 6.

No more snow on Broadway and Walker. Sigh.

It won'be be 1:23 4/5/06 in Europe until next month, as they reverse the month and date.... so, maybe the apolocalypse will begin in Belgium or something...

We had snow-huge snowflakes- at about 7 pm last night, in Lockport. Not much stuck, though, except, of course, to the car windshields. And, of course, enough moisture got into the car doors, to make tugging on them necessary to get them open (I had to go in through the passenger side, finally, thats fun, climbing over a center console).

Green sky...hmmmm...here, it means, that bad BAD weather is coming, usually in the form of a severe thunderstorm, with downdrafts. WNY version of tornadoes...as usual, when something happens in WNY, its cockeyed. Instead of whirling around, the wind just slams downwards hard enough to flatten hay, corn, wheat, if not entire barns when they're really bad. Probably cost farmers the same amount of dollar damage.

But in Manhattan? I agree. Its probably something floating over from some chemical factory in Jersey, kept low in the sky because of the weather. Hack, gag, yack! But, its good for some conversation, right? Better than the usual, "So, you come here often? Whats your sign?" Now, you can go up to a perfect stranger, and say, "COme out here, and look at the sky! We're gonna die! So, before we go, sleep with me!"

Adam, the quick answer is that the green sky is caused by selective scattering of different colors of light against a gray background. The longer answer is "it's complicated".

It's hailing pretty good down here in Philly - enough to sting. It might be coming your way.

wow, the flakes are huge on staten island... and it's snowing, too!

The brown is from NYC. The Green tint to it is from New Jersey

I'm tired of questions. I want answers!

Maple Syrup? *shrug*

Green Clouds? *shrug*

How can a city full of such brilliant and resourceful people come up with nothing but conspiracy theories???

Something fishy is going on here... I think someone is secretly repressing our answers.

Happy Severe Weather Awareness Week, everyone!

Green sky and tornadoes. Heh. Two of my officemates and I are from Kansas City and that's the first thing we said when our workgroup's token East Coaster commented on how weird the color was.

Gothamist Weather Joe: Can you explain what causes this phenomenon?

i'm on 23 and park. union square must be having the most massive pillow fight EVER.

I'll be worried when I see this and smell maple syrup...

People do say NYC is overdue for a hurricane. How about a snow-i-cane?
