Reader Photos: Snowy First Day of Spring

Last Friday might have been the first day of spring, but Mother Nature certainly did not get that memo.

Several inches of snow hit Long Island, up to three inches in some area, during the day on Friday.

Luckily most of the snow probably melted by Saturday when the sun came out and temperatures hit the 40s.

Before the snow was gone, local Patch reader and photographer, Laura Balducci, shared some photos of the snowy first day of spring in the Hampton Bays area.

If you would like to share photos, e-mail them to priscila.korb@patch.com or share them on the Westhampton-Hampton Bays Facebook page.
