Cloudy. A very bad blizzard in Boston Massachusetts area, struck New York City. Only got up as far as Kittery in Maine but got some snow in Portland but nothing serious beyond Kittery. New York and Boston second blizzard in 48 hours. Traffic trains clogged, airports closed, schools closed, people died. All places of business closed and factories closed. Very serious. I washed. Mr. Cole brought my Airway back.
