And we got over 20" of snow with a single storm like this one. I don't think we saw grass in our yard again until late April. Boston was still dumping snow into the harbor into the summer.

I have not heard from one of my cousins who lives in Boston near Harvard.

She knew she was going to get over 2 feet of snow and that the power might go out due to strong winds. So I am sure she is OK. But just wondering if her power is out.
