So far the snowstorm has dumped a bunch of snow on us, but not a horrible amount of wind on North Beacon Hill. Cross your fingers that it doesn’t get worse. With all the snow we’ve gotten, though — and it’s been falling steadily since yesterday afternoon — getting off the hill today is likely to be extremely difficult.

Please let us know what it’s like in your part of the Hill — traffic getting around OK? Particular places to avoid? Storm damage?

A little while ago I saw some folks skiing up Beacon Avenue. There’s always that method of getting around.

We’re not sure how much snow we’ve got this time — I just measured 7″, but I’m not sure how clear the spot I measured was before this storm, or if blowing snow has affected it. I would say we probably got at least 4″, though. That may be a conservative estimate.

We hope you are all keeping warm and being safe tonight!
