Getting some Qs on this—why are we canceling it & why no explanation? Both not true. I’ve done a few long interviews on streets vision lately that got cut down to a quote on “consensus” not reflecting full convo. Didn’t get to interview here, but we did send a statement that wasn’t shared in full…

The @bostonschools.boston.gov All-Star Marching Band brought the energy to Gillette Stadium on Saturday, performing in front of 30,000-plus fans at the @bostonlegacyfc.com inaugural game! 🎺🔥 Well done to all the marching-band students making their performance debut!

THAR SHE SNOWS! @universalhub.com

I saw the @streets.boston.gov crews out with Bobcats clearing these ramps and crosswalks by Fallon Field yesterday. Much appreciated by those of us walking that way to the school bus stop! @wutrain.bsky.social @enriquepepen.bsky.social

Overnight snow removal: 1,094 truck loads (18,150 cubic yards) hauled away to snow farms. Thank you to our relentless Public Works & City Services teams 💪

Post-blizzard snow removal totals: Crews have removed 1,234 loads from neighborhood streets - equaling 20,316 cubic yards. Day 2: Crews are continuing to using skid steers to clear crosswalks & curb ramps before large scale removal begins again during the overnight hours.

Quick walk down E 5th St

Boston’s 14 “snow farms” — including three in Dorchester— continue to grow as city workers and contractors truck out huge amounts of snow from street corners all over Boston to locations like the old Bayside Expo lot in Dorchester.

Thank you Boston Public Works for clearing up the snow by Mattapan Square and throughout the neighborhood. If you have any snow flags feel free to reach out to me or report it to 311, we are here to help!

Fun to welcome our students & families back to school this morning at the Mildred!

These mid-block snow piles help us keep snowbanks away from the intersections where they’d block visibility for pedestrians, cyclists & drivers. Also makes our snow removal efforts more efficient—these will be hauled away with overnight removal this week.

This is helpful to clarify! Boston has the same rules: City is responsible to clear near City properties, State does state (incl MBTA), & private owners responsible for sidewalks outside theirs. City workers (& seasonal contracts) clear our areas mostly with bobcats & snow blowers vs paid shoveling.

Our annual This is Loon Mountain event on City Hall Plaza

Back to school! Our overnight snow removal focused on opening up school zones so roadways, crosswalks, sidewalks & bus stops on these key routes are clear. We used data from 311 & GPS trackers in plows & other feedback from recent storms to pay extra attention to known tricky spots.

Thank you to everyone who joined one of the Love Your Block shoveling meet-ups hosted by our incredible Neighborhood Liaisons! ❄️

Yesterday was the 1st time the City has done large-scale daytime snow removal—holding the parking ban to give crews max space to work. Across daytime & overnight, we hauled away almost 1500 truckloads of snow (25,000+ cubic yds) to clear main roads & school zones. TY to our hardworking City teams 🙏

With 60" of snow Boston is 24" ahead of normal for this time of year, 10" ahead of the seasonal average … and 40" behind where we were in 2015. @universalhub.com @weatherishappening.com

The sun is out, the air is crisp, and it’s time to do your part to help keep Boston safe and accessible.

Usually we do removal overnight bc it’s disruptive & large equipment, but this time we’re holding the parking ban longer to do daytime removal today too. Will be piling snow away from the intersections mid-block to be removed to snow farms throughout the week. Also more snow farm sites & melting.

Love Your Block: winter wonderland edition

No school tomorrow — snowfall is expected for several more hours & safety comes first. We’ll need time overnight & tomorrow to clear snow for safe commutes for bus riders & walkers.

Our weather providers forecast another 5-6in of snow coming down before 9pm, most of it by 6pm. Please continue to stay off the roads & let our crews work. We’ll share news about the plan for tomorrow re: schools & city services this afternoon.

Officially the BLIZZARD of 2026

Since midnight, Boston EMS has responded to about 120 emergency calls. They’re currently out on another 17, which is low for a typical Monday—so everyone is doing a good job staying in & staying safe. So far no major storm-related calls. Keep it up!

Getting more reports of downed wires & some power outages, especially in East Boston. If you see a downed wire &/or tree, do not touch anything! Call 311 & we will come out to take care of it.

Ending homelessness requires creating permanent supportive housing AND direct, constant, compassionate outreach every day & night. Thank you to all our outreach workers & community partners for all that you do 🙏

We’re in the heart of the storm now until early afternoon—winds gusting 50+ mph & snowfall at 2+ in/hr. It’s impossible to keep roads clear under whiteout conditions, but we have 900+ plows & trucks out keeping roadways manageable until we can really clear once the snow slows. Stay in & stay safe!

Superintendent Skipper being the one to tell Mayor Wu the men's hockey team won gold during the press conference: not the kind of news you expect from the superintendent during a snow day press conference #bospoli

Our winter weather guide is up in 11 languages: from shoveling to parking, power outages to space savers, get all the info at boston.gov/snow ⬇️

How serious an emergency? Both governor and #Boston mayor are in fleeces today.

📢 BPS students: No school tomorrow, but please plan to help a neighbor shovel out after the snow stops falling

Pretty good snow alias ☃️

Parking ban on major roads is in effect NOW. This lets us get ahead of the storm, removing remaining snow banks before the nor’easter arrives & making room for plows & salt spreaders to maneuver through the storm. Thanks for everyone’s help to keep us all safe 🙏

NEW: Snow emergency, parking ban ahead of major winter storm to start at 2 p.m. on Sunday (2/22) in Boston, per Mayor's office. More details expected at 9:30 am press conference

Took the train into Boston. Red Bull has a snowboarding event on the city hall steps? Thanks Mayor Wu!

Bombogenesis is back! Boston’s already had 40in of snow in 2026 & looks like possibly another foot with Sunday-Monday Nor’easter. Stay tuned for more on snow prep…
