Scenes from Jersey City’s First Snowpacolypse of 2016

January 24, 2016

The first snowstorm of 2016 was one for the record books dumping over 2′ of snow in the tri-state area. Here’s how your fellow neighbors worked, battled, and frolicked through the record-breaking snowstorm.

Now can someone explain why train service, bus service, taxis/users and civilian traffic was suspended but 100+ were dumped on the street during blizzard with no service vehicle or shuttle? Where are emergency transit vehicles? Elderly people and families walking in a blizzard, no places open for shelter… Co-ordinate to disburse, accommodate and get everyone to areas for pickup to get them home when bus, train or traffic can start. Get a bus, attach a plow and chains and make it work. Love you Mayor Fulop, but this is a dangerous fail! #jerseycity #jonas2016 #hoboken #portauthority #njpath #transitfail
