Blizzard-Blasted New London: Add Your Photos And Videos

City works to dig out after it is blanketed in snow

The nor'easter that slammed into Connecticut on Friday and Saturday left much of the region paralyzed, with roads closed to non-essential traffic or snowed over and impassable. According to the National Weather Service, snowfall observations in New London County ranged from 15 inches in Stonington to 31 inches in Colchester.

People worked to dig out cars, clear sidewalks, or otherwise get out from underneath the enromous snowdrifts. But a few tenacious businesses opened their doors to anyone willing to venture out, and the snowfall also presented an opportunity to finally build a snowman or go sledding.

I went into downtown New London and Fort Trumbull on Friday evening and Saturday morning and came back with these photos and video. We're looking for your contributions as well, so if you have some good images or footage of the storm feel free to upload it to this gallery.
