- maxerickson 12y agoYes, it's the amount of snow outstripping the capacity to remove it that always makes the news. Lots of places regularly get far more snow than Boston: http://www.nohrsc.noaa.gov/snowfall/data/201503/snfl_2014093012_to_2015031612.png http://www.nohrsc.noaa.gov/snowfall/data/201503/snfl_2014093...

- acomjean 12y agoYou're not kidding. I (oddly) graph the temp daily, and feb had about 3 days where it broke freezing. A fun city game: car or just snow mound? The public transit didn't work, compounding the problem. My three mile commute turned into 1.5 hr nightmare. Finally Massachusetts is having a conversation about public transit. Fingers crossed they'll fix it. Maybe in time for the Olympics!
