The big dig out got underway Wednesday in Yonkers after Tuesday's nor'easter left the city covered in snow.

Residents like Karin Doran spent Wednesday struggling to get her car free. Her neighbor, Chris Eisen, was also having troubling getting onto the road, saying his tires were just spinning in the snow.

Teens in the Hudson Valley who got a snow day capitalized on the weather, helping dig out cars and doing some heavy lifting.

The younger kids took advantage of the snow day and went sledding.
