I was a kid when Hurricane Carol struck New England. I am pretty sure it was 1954.I thought it was fun because school was closed for a week or so. My parents didn't share my enthusiasm.
Blizzard of 1976 in Massachusetts put me on the other side of the disaster. As a parent being without heat, water and electricity was not the fun my kids thought it was. Cooking in the fireplace and living in 1 room for 2 weeks was not fun. Thank goodness we had a fireplace and lots of wood to burn.
