Boston: Six feet of snow and counting

The snowfall in the past month in Boston has been unprecedented.  As of Tuesday, the area had received 72 inches (six feet) of snow in just one month.  This shatters all previous one month totals.  The average snowfall for a whole winter in Boston is 47 inches.

A ban on parking in the streets, school closings, and transportation headaches are just a few of the issues taking a toll on Boston residents.  School districts haven't had a full week of school in a month.  High profile court cases like the murder trial of Aaron Hernandez have been put on hold.

The city is even running out of places to put the snow.  It was okayed to dump the snow into the Boston Harbor which is usually not permitted.  The winter weather so far is unimaginable to most residents, who just want it to stop.
