Remember this? Tuesday marks anniversary of Boston's first 2015 blizzard

BOSTON — The winter had started slowly until a snowstorm hit on Jan. 24 with up to 9" of snow northwest of Boston. Logan airport reported 5.1".

It turned out that was just a warm-up to what was to come just a few days later. The snow began on Jan. 26 and became very heavy that night. We stayed on the air all night long and all day on the 27th. It was the beginning of an unprecedented run of snow in the winter of 2015.
