A massive winter storm has Maya home from school today. I normally don’t mind driving with snow on the ground but have learned to work from home when heavy snow is falling during commute hours, as was the case today. Snow removal in Massachusetts is generally excellent but it is simply impossible for the plows to keep up when snow is falling at the rate of 2 inches per hour and they have to contend with traffic as well. At noon, I cleared about a foot of snow from the driveway so stranded house guests, Jeremy and Zach could make their way home. It was still snowing when I took this picture of Maya at 6 PM.
