Weather in Cambridge, MA?

[matt819]

I'm supposed to be going to a show at the ART, and I have to travel from southern NH. It's miserable up here, and I have little doubt it's the same there. But if you could let me know just how bad, so I can be absolutely certain I was right to stay put (and forfeit the money for the tix), I'd appreciate it.

1. Reports out of the western part of Mass.

say the eastern part if getting hammered. up to 40" on the Cape, if that helps.

2. Lots of things are cancelled in Mass

Most museums and such are closed, if that makes you feel better! We are getting smacked.

3. stay home

i live across the river in boston. they have cancelled school already for monday and tuesday. i doubt the museum is even open today. it's snowing harder now 10:30 am then it did anytime last night.

6. ohh I wonder what they will do with our finals tomorrow

We still have 2 days of finals, monday and tuesday, I wonder if they will still go? Professors and test proctors have to drive here.

8. just keep studying

if you get an extra day or two great - but don't assume they won't be held tomorrow or tuesday. good luck.

10. they had better happen before wednesday

12. Tough one,Maya!

Cool Web site:headbang: BTW!

All my shoveling from last night at 10pm is all for naught..wind drifts!:shrug:

4. Don't bother! They say it may be as bad as the Blizzard of '78

Public transport are running but slowly, snow drifts and ploughed stuff shoulder high on the main roads.

5. IT SUCKS

it is snowing really hard outside of my window, and there is nobody driving (my window overlooks JFK street, which is usually packed)

At least 2 feet of snow maybe, but I haven't gone outside.

7. Just to give you an idea.....

here's a list of webcams (right column). It doesn't look good.

11. Cams were TOO Cool, Thanks!

:hi:

[matt819]

9. Thank you all

You confirmed my decision. Now I have to see if I'll get my money back.

[Renew Deal]

13. You probably can.

Are you sure the event wasn't postponed?

[matt819]

16. Probably was

The box office doesn't answer, which means, I suspect, that no one went in. No surprise there.

We're not too bad here in terms of inches of snow, but the roads suck, and the blowing and drifting is worse than I've seen for some time.

Staying warm and toasty with the wood stove.

Thanks all.

14. Stay put!!!

You're doing the right thing by staying home. Visibility's crap, as are most roads.

Stay warm, have some cocoa & relax!!!

15. Everything's cancelled

don't bother coming.

It's brutal.

17. All Cambridge events cancelled, across to news ticker

Not surprising, really.

19. No school for two days for the kids

I think we got close to 30" here...at least it looks it with 8 ft. drifts.

[jonnyblitz]

20. wow. sounds like you got it worse than we did in southeastern CT

and we supposedly got it the worst in the whole state of CT!! I just shoveled the long downnhill driveway and it was quite deep but doable. The wind is minimal with barely any drifting and the road in front of the house is plowed and sanded and people seem to be getting around no problem.

18. Ma just called me from Salem NH and there's 30" on the ground.

So much that her overgrown golden retreiver cant even go out and walk in it.
Makes you really appreciate San Diego.
