Wow. That is just crazy! I'm really glad, then, that I ended up taking the <a href="http://www.mbta.com/traveling_t/schedules_commuterrail.asp" rel="nofollow">MBTA commuter rail</a> into Boston that day, since the traffic ended up being so terrible. Even the train was a bit slow on the ride home -- but not five hours slow! :( 6 hours?!?! Wow. That is just crazy!

I had to check into a hotel room that night too. Took over 6 hours to get from Fall River to Burlington. It's not so much the snow itself...but the *traffic* bogged down in the snow. I ended up missing my BCRAN exam and had to reschedule - and now have to recert on the CCNA because of the storm. Grrr. Ahhh…you can’t shovel *through* the traffic.

I think they even got the accumulation right. Also, seriously...you live in New England. Why, unless you're driving a sports car, would you ever put anything but all-season tires on your car?
