The storm was a bust. Sorry I didn't post any updates. I didn't end up traveling as much on Monday as I thought I would. And because the storm was a bust, I didn't go out to take photos on Tuesday. But I did take some photos during Monday's PM rush. I'll try to post those. This morning's commute in went fine.

In some cases last winter, trains were delayed nearly three hours, and dozens of trains were canceled altogether, after rail switches became jammed with ice.
