It’s snowing on the East Coast, and celebrities are really excited. On Thursday, stars took to Instagram to share pictures of the February snow day, compliments of a storm named Niko. While some photos featured the famous faces enjoying the scenery, others simply marveled at Mother Nature.

Naomi Watts went sledding in Central Park with her sons, brother, and niece. It was a true winter wonderland.

Liv Tyler shared a video of her pooch exploring the powdery stuff with the caption, “Let it snow!!!!!Nyc dog!!!!” The mother of three also included some dog and snowflake emojis. Oh, and this “#snowday!!!!!” That’s a lot of exclamation points, people.

Single mom Kate Gosselin used her snowblower to clean off her Pennsylvania property — like a boss.

Of course, she put her kids to work too. (She has eight of ’em!) Though they appeared to have fun while working, making snow angels.

Diane Kruger took a more artful approach, sharing an image of cars blanketed in powdery snow taken through a window screen. (Guess the newly single star was warm inside.)

Heidi Klum shook her golden locks in front of a snowy city scene — as supermodels do.

James Marsden also shared a scenery snapshot. The pic showcased a snowy downtown city street in a rare moment of peace. He captioned his image with a simple snowman emoji. We can only hope he is actually building a snowman.

Divorce star Sarah Jessica Parker marveled at the beauty of the scene, sharing a video of snow accumulating on the slender, winding branches of a tree. “Mother Nature,” she wrote. In one hour the video had over 75,000 likes — because, really, what’s not to like about that?

Mother nature. X,, sj

Like Diane Kruger, Emmy Rossum shared a pic from what appeared to be her window. In the pic, the camera looks down from above on a cluster of trees and backyards coated in a powdery snow. The 30-year-old actress captioned it with a simple snowflake emoji.

Nicky Hilton channeled her inner Ansel Adams for her “snooooow day” pic of a stone bridge in Central Park. (We wonder if she saw Watts.)

Actress and author (and Mrs. Jason Biggs) Jenny Mollen shared a simple pic of herself catching snowflakes on her tongue. “#mood,” she explained, just in case it wasn’t clear.

“I thought I brought the California sunshine with me!” wrote Maria Shriver, who appeared on Today this week. “I guess not!” Nope, not at all.

“So this is happening,” shared Hugh Jackman, who was warmly nestled inside away from the huge snow dump.

Jaimie Alexander had to go to work on The Blindspot, but her commute was much easier than this person’s that she passed. It was a cross-country skier on a city street. “He’s just cruisin’,” she reported.

‪When you have to work on a snow day ….???? #blindspot ‬

And last, but certainly not least, Emily Ratajkowski posted a shot of herself proudly standing outside as snow fell around her. Hands on hips, she looked pleased as punch to be bearing the elements on the city street. “Wooo! Snow day!” she gushed.

Wooo! Snow day!
