Daily observations on the Hudson River as it passes through New York City. The section of the Hudson which passes through New York is historically known as the North River, called this by the Dutch to distinguish it from the Delaware River, which they knew as the South River. This stretch of the Hudson is still often referred to as the North River by local mariners today. All photos by Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed. Twitter @dannykatman
Snow, sleet and fog kept river traffic low on Wednesday. The bulker Nordic Skagen, which passed us Monday heading up to the Port of Coeymans, came through again on the way out of town, periodically blasting its horn in low visability. There was no obvious change in draft between arrival and departure, though presumably she loaded some cargo up there, perhaps scrap metal. AIS is not yet indicating her next destination.
