Big Snow in the Big City

After the unfortunate affair with the snowstorm leaving our class stranded at UNH and unable to attend the conference, I thought I would talk about what happened on the Boston end of this system.

They got hit harder than UNH did, if that is to be believable, with a whooping 24.9 inches of snow, which closed down Logan airport for almost 24 hours Friday to Saturday. As of today, the city itself still has many unplowed, narrow, or dead end streets, which is Mayor Meninos' first priority for tonight into Monday. Had our class actually attempted to go to the conference (which was cancelled both in terms of our trip and as an event) there would have been no parking due to the snow emergency and winter parking bans.
