Slideshow: British School of Boston Community Chronicle of Winter Storm Nemo

It doesn’t matter where you come from: if you see two feet of snow fall in 24 hours, that’s an incredible amount. During Winter Storm Nemo the Boston area received that amount seemingly overnight, with snowfall and high speed winds creating one of the biggest blizzards in the the great city of Boston’s history. Schools across the city were shut on Friday and road travel was actually illegal after 4:00pm. We all hunkered down, hoped the power would stay on, and stayed warm.

And shoveled. A lot.

Below is a photo slideshow, chronicaling our community’s trek through what might be 2013’s greatest blizzard. There are a few taken during Nemo, but understandably many of them are of the aftermath and of the fun that was had with two feet of new snow.

Thank you to everyone for sending in so many great pictures! I’ve narrowed the list to roughly 60, and we’ll be sure to include a handful in the 2012-2013 Yearbook as well. Enjoy the slideshow!
