Earlier this year, in March, I wrote about how a Nor'easter caused endless Boston traffic. Well, that was nothing compared to the traffic today!
The visibility from my office window is horrible, but here's a picture I took:
When I talked to my dad on the phone he told me the streets in Lowell were gridlocked too. In addition to the visibility being horrible, I think the psychological fact that this is the first big storm of the season has people adjusting to the new driving conditions. Now wouldn't it be awesome if Google Street View was somehow live, and we could actually see what the highways looked like from our computers?
Well, the Massachusetts Turnpike Traffic Camera's will have to do for now. Here's what the Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge looks like right now:
But sadly, the feed on the Mass. Turnpike Traffic site only allows you to watch for 4 minutes at a time. You can use this URL (thanks Thea!) to see the same feed without interruption! Here are some more shots of today's traffic:
Nice picture looking out at the snow covered street and cars.
Well… looking out at my house; the grass is green for now. Maybe 1 to 2 inches of snow in the next 2 days.
It’s all your fault. I read this and Saturday and Sunday morning it SNOWED in Indiana. We have 12 inches about. Good news tho…. it’s headed your way now. 😆 And another 5 coming tonight.
Yes, we’re getting hammered. It snowed both yesterday and today, it’s supposed to snow again tomorrow, Tuesday it’s supposed to be sunny, and then Wednesday Thursday and Friday it’s supposed to snow again!
