Disclaimer: this post is intended for people who didn’t make it outside today (read: people who still have gastro, and seniors with looming thesis-draft deadlines). If you did go outside today–and enjoyed it–make sure you go outside tomorrow, too, because it’s supposed to be even nicer. We didn’t have much of a winter to complain

If you weren’t, check out (a very confused looking) Phil in this video. (Also of note: Phil’s powers are apparently not limited to meteorological prediction.

The Snow Mound Formerly Known as the Blair Arch Staircase

And it appears oh-so-sleddable. Disclaimer: it is still a staircase. First snowfall of the year(!!!) and it looks to be a hefty one. This photo was taken on 12/26 circa 9:30 PM; apparently there’s about a foot of the fluffy white stuff and more to come. The U-Store — just barely visible here, that glowing beacon

University crushes your snow fort dreams
Thursday, 11 February 2010
by Angela Wu
The Housing Department just sent out an email asking students to “refrain from building any snow enclosures on campus.” At the Ink, we think igloos are important for a few reasons. Safety. Safety always comes first. With the recent unexpected weather, you never know when you might get stuck in a blizzard. White-out conditions. You’re

Cyclops Snowmen, Tray Sledding, and Stubborn Professors: Sounds Like a Princeton Snow Day to me!
Thursday, 11 February 2010

Okay, not to keep beating the increasingly dead horse that was the Great Snow Day of 2010, but hey–it’s our first impromptu day off in years. I think we’re entitled to some serious waxing poetic. So, without further ado, my top five most bizarre, endearing, disturbing, or otherwise patently Princeton parts of yesterday’s snow day:

Princeton’s Winter Wonderland
Saturday, 06 February 2010
by Miriam Geronimus
It snowed! Or rather, it’s snowing… a lot. According to our ruler, we’ve received about six inches of snow so far. Which means … snow day!!! Oh, wait, it’s Saturday. And Princeton doesn’t do snow days for a measly six inches. Cass Cliatt, Princeton’s spokesperson, tells us that campus has only closed three times due

Maybe you’ve heard about the snow storm moving up the northeast corrider–the one that made Obama race home dramatically from Copenhagen! From the Times: Winter storm warnings were in effect from Tennessee and North Carolina to the southern New England states, and the storm was expected to affect Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and other cities.

Late Sunday evening, Rutgers canceled all classes on its New Brunswick and Piscataway campuses. Then The College of New Jersey closed its campus at 5 am this morning. Then all local school districts declared it a snow day. After we’d hoped all night for the expected “8-14 inches of snow” to bury Princeton’s Gothic buildings
