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 copyright Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed.

Tuesday Feb 13–winter nor’easter

A winter nor’easter brought wind and snow to the region. Observable traffic was limited in poor visibility through the morning, but by afternoon the sun was out and the snow was quickly melting.

The Ruth M. Reinauer ATB moved north through the storm with cargo for Albany.
Timothy Reinauer laid up off 79th Street during the weather but headed for the Upper Bay as conditions cleared in the afternoon.
Marylin George had the largest Poling-Cutler barge Eva Leigh Cutler loaded and low in the water and came up the North River on a slow bell then anchored off 72nd Street through sunset.
Buchanan12 had a coating of snow over its usual load of crushed dolomite stone coming down from Clinton Point at civil twilight.
