Inches of snow that is. I remember working in Cambridge Mass in the early 90's I think, when 2 feet of snow came down. Everything stopped. It was like a holiday or something. It was odd I remember, coming from Vermont.

We were repairing a flooded rental townhouse for a friend down there. Our friends tenant was from Mexico City. When the tenant went back home to Mexico City for Christmas break, she turned the heat off for the month.
