What Grade Would You Give Tiverton and Little Compton for Plowing the Streets?
How well would you the streets are plowed in Tiverton and Little Compton in the wake of Nemo Blizzard.
Is your street clear? Are you still buried? Is your mailbox still standing?
On Friday and Saturday, Tiverton and Little Compton experienced a snow storm it will not soon forget. Across the region, 3,500 residents are still without power, and in some cases - barely able to pull out of their driveways.
Yeserday on Facebook we asked how Tiverton-Little Compton residents would grade the towns for plowing the streets. Here's what a few residents had to say:

Toni L Ellis (Feb. 10 at 8:40 p.m.) Brayton is never done well.
Dawn Valliere-Brayton (Feb. 10 at 8:43 p.m.) East road , Bulgarmarsh and Crandall were atrocious this afternoon. The state forgot them and concentrated on Main road only. Private plowers did awesome job on my street though.

Calen Sandler (Feb. 10 at 8:45 p.m.) Stone church was okay except for the upper half.
Lisa Greene (Feb. 10 at 9:10 p.m.) Plowed back into my driveway and the path we made to mailbox.
Phil Viveiros (Feb. 10 at 9:50 p.m.) I don't think enaough can be said about the efforts and coordination in keeping the roads open and safe from the start. Where do you put it all??? This was a big storm, they did a great job and theyr'e still out there trying to make it better the best way they can. Thank you all for your efforts. If it wasn't for them, we would have never got all our propane delivered since Saturday and through the night and today from Phil's Propane.
Amanda Coelho (Feb. 10 at 9:51 p.m.) The state guys have been out for 68 hrs and are still out trying to get all the roads clear and the town working it was a bad storm and that the heaviest point the truck had to stop because they were unable to see ... All the plow guys are doing there every best

As the piles of snow remain, we want to know how you grade the town's response (or state's) to yesterday's major snowstorm. Does the town get an A? B? C? F?
