Great Snow 1717

I recall those days. Back then it took a lot to have school cancelled. Now school gets cancelled because it is hot/cold...

I agree

..oh I know. I love winter, most here just love the snow that may come with winter, even if the snow melts in a few days.

I like having a snowpack

..for a decade of winters...

I can't control the weather??..hey thanks for letting me know!

I agree.

the equivalent of the north rays media saying they are in on every "name" free agent but failing to sign them...

..not me. I like having a snowpack on the ground during winter. I want it to feel and look like winter.

.a lot better than having above normal temps during winter

I'll take the cold...

Not much of a snowpack left in my neighborhood in Methuen....will be back to bare ground by Monday..

You need to update your snow removal equipment...

Does anyone else miss the days of when the Montreal Express roared in after a storm????

Very heavy snow In Methuen. Roads have quickly become very slippery

I am not surprised. Power outages are increasing in the south and along the east coast

the baseball season or the winter of 95-96?

2 major snowstorms in April including the one the forced the cancellation of the home opener in boston. The 2nd one began shortly after the home opener was played...narrowly missed a 2nd cancellation of the home opener. Fenway was an absolute icebox!

The Quick Dam is awesome. A must have for a homeowner.

These come in very handy during a power outage: inexpensive to buy and run.

United States Power Outage Map

As of 7 AM this morning The Weather Channel was reporting at least 400,000 were without power in the south.

That is a concern. and with widespread power outages expect across a good chunk of the east coast, that will limit the power companies from brining in crews from other areas to help restore the power. Usually in situations like this I notice out of state crews in various staging areas. I did not see any crews in some of those staging areas this morning

I've heard different versions of it..many well known sayings have been mangled over time.
