New England Hit with New Blizzard in Record Month of Snowfall 
--------------------------------------------------------------


 
New England has been hit with its fourth major snowstorm in less than a
month. Two feet of snow fell in some areas, adding to up to six feet
already on the ground. February has already become Boston's snowiest
month since records began in 1872, with reports the city has now
recorded more snow in three weeks than Chicago has ever seen in an
entire winter. Climate scientist Michael Mann noted the link between
record snowfall and climate change, tweeting: "If you deny that warmer
ocean temps lead to greater snowfall with coastal winter storms, you are
not a climate denier. You are a physics denier."
