The situation felt like a haiku. I try to work out the words here.
the dark street spreads wide
clear of cars both left and right
waiting for snowfall
clear spaces waiting
unfilled by car -- or snowplow
ready for the storm
the threat of tickets
how broad the street is, waiting
ready for the storm
traffic enforcement (5)
avoid the overnight park (7)
all cars tucked away (5)
tuck away your car
snowfall brings parking tickets
broad road awaits plow
tuck away your car
snowfall brings the meter maid
broad roads await plow
anticipation
heavy snowfall predicted
prepare for the plow
snowfall predicted
secret breadth to narrow ways
revealed for the plow
tuck away your car
the dark road is wide. edges
revealed for the plow
tuck away your car
the edges of the road wait
revealed for the plow
tuck away your car
both edges of the road wait
revealed for the plow
anticipation
both edges of the road clear
revealed for the plow
