Boston Transit Shuts Down amid Record Snowfall 
-----------------------------------------------


 
The city of Boston, Massachusetts, has shut down its public transit
system amidst record-setting snowfall across the New England region. Two
feet of snow fell Monday in parts of Massachusetts, marking the state's
third major snowstorm in two weeks. Gov. Charlie Baker says workers have
removed enough snow to fill 90 football stadiums. Scientists, meanwhile,
say the trend of increased snowfall and stronger storms is fueled by
global warming.
