ESSEX COUNTY, MA – Winter storms have taken their toll on Essex County in the past week: Route 128 was a mess, power got knocked out all over the North Shore and slick roads challenged even the most seasoned New England drivers. In Salem alone last Wednesday, police reported more than 30 car accidents.
Monday promised at least a little more snow, making commuting conditions treacherous.
It's unclear if the worst is over (for now), but take a look back and see how much snow Essex County got from Sunday to Monday. Readers, does this sound right to you? How are the roads where you drive? Let us know in the comments.
