it's snowing in New England and traffic is at a dead stop

I lived in Marblehead for 25 years, so RIGHT NOW I'm going to Trunk Bay and shovel some sand. I call it sympathy shoveling.

Yup- yesterday sucked .

I do not own a 4wd and won't in the near future unless they offer a deep discount to resident of New Hampshire .

A usual 45 min commute took 1 1/2 hours. And I consider myself lucky since most people spent 3-4x's their regular commute time stuck on the road, running out of gas, etc .

The timing of that storm could not have been worse!

I love New England but I hate snow & ice storms. I can tolerate them on the weekends .

Come on people, we live in New England!! Learn how to drive in the snow! ARGH!!

Way too many people think 4WD means "can defy laws of physics". Yeah you can go faster than me in my puny car, but what about stopping???

Betcha they arent similarly bad weather driving challenged up in Maine.

Just imagine if you were stuck in Boston's traffic yesterday afternoon, in your burnt orange Hummer, listening to sports radio and your name if Roger Clemens!! What a crappy day that would be!

Did not recognize so many on the board are from this area. For those people looking for a June trip American airlines via San Juan, Saturday departure as low as $110 each way plus $60 in fees. That is why we are going over July 4th
