That was a storm!
I lived in Lowell at the time. When the storm let up, I dug my car out and put on the chains, but General Dukakas had closed the roads. Being a volunteer for the Red Cross, I cross-county skied down to their building and spent the next few days driving nurses from their homes to the hospital. By Friday, the roads were pretty clear so I drove down to Westin to visit some friends. The cops got me just as I exited route 128 and I was busted for driving on bare dry roads while the ban was still on. Never paid the ticket, never was asked to. The shame of it all was that NH ski areas didn't get nearly as much.
