ORH_wxman Posted December 12, 2024 Share Posted December 12, 2024 Xmas Eve had an absolute monster snowstorm in 1961. A lot of central and eastern SNE had over 20” in that one. One of the more underrated KU type storms around here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I could be remote, sure. But life is too large and complicated. I have all my family and friends here. I like being near BOS and love the ocean for as much pain as it gives me at times. Would love to get a place towards the outer Cape sometime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
