Check out striking photos of this weekend's massive snowstorm

This past weekend, New Yorkers were treated to the very first massive snowstorm of the season. 

Central Park had to deal with over eight inches of powder brought by the nor'easter while parts of Brooklyn saw as much as 11 inches of snow throughout the weekend. Even more strikingly, Nassau County suburbs are still reckoning with the 14 inches of the stuff that enveloped their towns by late Saturday night.

Yes, we agree, snow brings along with it inconveniences but can you blame us for absolutely loving how it makes the city look? Case in point: the following photos, each one striking in its own way and reminding us that New York is beautiful even after dealing with a pretty giant snowstorm.
