Snowbreak!

Since I'm a weirdo and tracking these things, I thought I'd share that as of today, we are officially within the longest snowbreak of the season! Until now, the longest gap between snow emergencies was the 15-day period between the end of first and the beginning of the second. The other gaps were considerably smaller, at 7d2h, 6d21h, and 4d4h, respectively.

It has now been a full 16 days since our last snow emergency was lifted! (Someday we may even reclaim parking on the even side of the street.)

AWW, does that mean that we won't get to use the flame throwers? B-)

VICTORY!

I have created a mostly-usable parking spot on the even side of my street! I've been hacking at the giant snow bank for the past few warm days, and today I think I finally dug far enough in that a car could fit. It's not down to the pavement, but it's low enough to park on top of.

I view this as a victory, and a gift to my fellow somervillians.

If this keeps up, some of the snow in my yard might actually melt. Gasp!

Our neighborhood has had the even side back for a couple of weeks now.
