Can't remember how many years ago it was, but I do recall a winter with little snow. But then toward the end of winter, we got hit with a few blockbuster storms, back to back. :joyfull:

I recall that generally March has always been relatively warmer but heavy in Nor'easter's. When I drove bus, I always dreaded March. However, that said, the worst one was on Valentines Day in 2007. Almost 3 feet of snow that day. Fun Fact: buses cannot get through 3 ft. of snow, neither can any car you have ever seen.

I recall stories from my friend who lived outside Boston 1978. He told me he was trapped in his home for one week no electricity no heat during the blizzard of 1978. I think Boston and surrounding areas shut down for about a week.

Yup. Remembered that one. Schools and many work places were shut down, because the Governor ordered all vehicles (except for emergency ones) off the road for many days. At the time I lived near a highway, and so many cars were snowed in.

I also remember the National Guard flying in by helicopter to the high school football field. They brought in cases of milk and bread, and residents walked up there to bring some home. Even the small corner stores couldn't get in any supplies for days.

Stay at home, no choice. Another time+ where NYC had to stay at home was the hot summer of 1977 when the city lost power for a few days. 9 months later there was an unexpected high amount of babies born in the hospitals.

Wasn't that the major blackout in around 1965? New York and a whole lot of New England were in the dark.

Three weeks in a row we've had a few days in the 40s early in the week, followed by a major winter storm. The exact same days. We're living in a simulation.

It's a Ground Hog Day of weather. We have the same thing, but more livable, it seems to get warm during the week and cold and rainy on weekends. Not a big deal for those of us that are retired because for us everyday is a weekend but it is depressing for those that have to work during the week. On the bright side it will be spring soon.
