Information
,fill in the blank, . As a rule, another six inches of snow could be expected after the spring daffodils bloomed and the robins returned from their winter homes.
Sometimes the last snow held off until May, at which point it was useful for dealing with one of the headaches it created: the weight of the snow on leafy branches that caused them to snap and take down power lines. As residents waited for the utility company to restore the electricity, they hauled out coolers, packed them with snow, and emptied their freezers into them. Some parents even sent their children outdoors to build snow forts for storing their perishables.
