Nobody in eastern Massachusetts needs to see any statistics to know it’s been an unusually snowy winter. Still, the numbers are pretty jaw-dropping.
According to ABCNews.com, more than 77 inches of snow has fallen this season in Boston – nearly 3 feet above normal. Over 40 inches of snow has fallen in February alone, making it the third snowiest February on record, and we’re not even half way into the month.
Boston’s had twice as much snow as Mount Washington (a.k.a., Home of the World’s Worst Weather) this month, and nearly four times as much snow as Anchorage, Alaska, this season.
