If you are ever in New York City and get 3 feet of snow, you might be in luck.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Hotel
  1. Step 1

    If you are visiting New York City in the winter and Mother Nature decides to dump 3 feet of snow on you, this could be your lucky day.

  2. Step 2

    Most likely you will already have a hotel room in NYC unless you where planning on just spending the day there. But if that's the case plan on finding one which should not be a problem because most reservations will have to be cancelled because of the weather.

  3. Step 3

    Now you can set off in the empty snow covered streets to the local fire house for a visit and pay respect to the ones who lost their lives during the 911 attack.

  4. Step 4

    Next take a walk over to 44 st. and try to catch a Broadway play. There is always a great chance to get last minute tickets for a great price because of last minute cancellations.

  5. Step 5

    Now that you paid your respects, caught a Broadway show for less then full price now it is time to grab something to eat.

  6. Step 6

    Most likely the bars are full because everyone is waiting for the snow to dissipate. There should not be problem getting a table for dinner because reservation cancellations.

  7. Step 7

    So after all a snowstorm in NYC can actually be enjoyable event, but take advantage of it quick because the streets do not stay empty for long..

on 1/10/2009 This sounds so cool and romantic. My husband wants to take me there soon for a weekend getaway, maybe we'll get to experience a snowstorm too. Although I get enough snow at home, still sounds fun.
