Crazy weather — although this is not the latest it has snowed in Brooklyn, according to The New York Times. That was May 9, in 1977. We hope this doesn’t wreck our tulips, which were just about to bloom today. (You can see their tiny heads at the far end of our yard, in front of the holly bushes, above.)

Some quotes from Twitter:

“My Farmer’s Almanac did not predict snow with a side of fireworks in Brooklyn in mid-April.” — Elizabeth Spiers

“Ugh, surprise snow overnight in Brooklyn, killed all the cherry blossoms in the back yard.” — Gregory Pattillo

“Did it snow tonight in Brooklyn or am I crazy and wasn’t it like 80 degrees yesterday hey God what are you doing.” — bay res
