The canals of Boston

Zinnia shows us some streets are looking like canals with all the melting snow, such as Bolton Street in South Boston.

Adopt a storm drain
Shovel it out and put a sign on it: "This Storm Drain Shoveled By ..."
She really captured the low country light here, though. Very nice!
When I saw the word canal
I was expecting some actual water.
(Edit: Spelling Error - Because all arguments go out the window with such)
When I saw the word world, I
When I saw the word world, I was expecting the world.
Seriously, great pic!
Me too
And all we got was a lousy photograph
Photo is nice
But its like a picture of Venice looking at a wet spot on the sidewalk.
Not much water
We've been so lucky this year. We had several inches of water just waiting to melt. Usually, the way that Boston works is that there's a ton of snow to melt, and then it's 60 and rains three inches, and everything floods, and it's terrible, and the streets are lakes, and it's horrible.
This year it's been 40 and sunny and we've melted feet of snow with little more than a trickle. It's pretty fantastic, actually. In 1996 we got a ton of snow, and then four days later it was 60º and pouring rain, and we had slush and lake-sized puddles and flooding. In January. It might hit 60 for the first time in 2015 this week. In April.
