Boston Transit Shuts Down amid Record Snowfall

HeadlineFeb 10, 2015

The city of Boston, Massachusetts, has shut down its public transit system amidst record-setting snowfall across the New England region. Two feet of snow fell Monday in parts of Massachusetts, marking the state’s third major snowstorm in two weeks. Gov. Charlie Baker says workers have removed enough snow to fill 90 football stadiums. Scientists, meanwhile, say the trend of increased snowfall and stronger storms is fueled by global warming.
