Boston Prepares for Nor'easter as Schools Close and Snow Protocols Activate
After a nor'easter dumps roughly 15 inches of snow, Boston Public Schools are closed for Tuesday, Feb. 24 to give crews time to clear sidewalks and widen roadways; a snow emergency and parking ban remain in effect until 6 p.m. that day. Libraries, senior centers, and BCYF facilities reopen at noon on Feb. 24; other city buildings keep normal hours. Trash and recycling collection are delayed by one day. Space savers must be removed within 48 hours after the end of the emergency, with extra rules in the South End and Bay Village. Shelters run 24/7 with outreach and amnesty measures when temperatures fall below freezing; residents should call 911 for emergencies or 311 for non-emergencies.
