I was working in Boston at the time, and living in Framingham. Believe me, the forecasts didn't call for anything of the sort. Until around 9 or 10:00 am, it was flurries or some snow. As the highway departments decided whether they would strike that day or not, the snow mounted up on the roadways.
hundreds of vehicles were stranded on Route 495. Most were abandoned. It took me 2 1/2 hours to make the journey home that day. The following day, it took me quite awhile to fine my car amidst the drifts. Nobody was a hero that day, especially the weathermen.
