It kept snowing all day today. The town’s plows haven’t been able to keep up, so the town has extended the on-street parking ban through Wednesday at 8 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because it’s been so windy, it’s hard to say how much snow we got here in Cohasset. The National Weather Service reports that a trained spotter measured 13.5 inches of snow in Rockland, just south of here, at 5:13 this morning. We’ve had another 2 to 4 inches since then, and it’s still snowing. I’d guess the total snowfall will be at least 18 inches here in Cohasset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I took a break from work in the middle of the day, and went snowshoeing in Great Brewster Woods, a 25 acre tract of conservation land close to our house. It felt like I was out in the middle of nowhere \u2014 a pretty amazing feeling for crowded suburbia. I didn’t see another soul, and the falling snow deadened all the sounds except for a Great Horned Owl hooting mournfully in a tree overhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update 1\/28: NWS spotters from the immediate area reported 18 to 24 inches of snow from the storm. I’d guess about 20 inches here, though because of drifting it’s hard to tell. In any case, a very substantial storm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
