An unexpected bully of a storm

More than a foot of snow fell in Boston and up to 2 feet in other parts of the state Friday, as a winter storm that exceeded most predictions pummeled the seacoast, toppled a house on Plum Island, and knocked out power to more than 9,000 homes.

But a month after a February blizzard delivered Boston its biggest winter whupping in a long time, this surprisingly strong snowstorm raised little fanfare.

Tell all of this to my patients who depend on "The Ride" and other means of transport to get to their dialysis and chemo appointments.  Meteorologists blew this one BIG TIME and it wasn't a minor inconvenience to them.

Yes, Kathy, you still have a right to protect your house, no matter how shortsighted the purchase was.
