Mayor Marty Walsh addressed Bostonians again to provide an update on the city’s snow removal operations. He also noted that the snow emergency and parking ban will remain in effect until 6 p.m. tonight.

The ban was instituted at 6 a.m. Monday morning.

Perhaps more than anything, the mayor stressed the need for everyone to help out to some extent.

Whether it be shoveling out the sidewalk in front of your apartment (typically your landlord’s responsibility), shoveling out fire hydrants, or taking pictures of people shoveling snow onto the roads (that’s a no-no) and alerting Citizens Connect of it, in order for Boston to resume operating at a functional level it’s paramount that everyone partake.

The New England Patriots victory parade through Downtown Boston will take place at 11 a.m. at the Prudential Center as planned, though Mayor Walsh is urging people to both dress warmly and to avoid climbing snowbanks as a public safety issue.

“People want a parade, it’s been what we’ve always done after a team wins the championship,” said Mayor Walsh. “I think we’ll be fine for tomorrow.”

The primary issue as it pertains to snow at this point is where to put it. Capacity is a problem for Boston, which saw a record breaking seven-day total of more than 40 inches. Putting it in perspective, Mayor Walsh said we’ve received more than the blizzard of 1978.

“We’re at a unique point in snow removal,” said Public Works Commissioner Michael Dennehy. “We’re bringing in 350-ton snow melter going to our reservation road on the west side of the City.

Bitter cold and huge amounts of snow caused severe delays on the MBTA Tuesday morning. A power shortage on the Red Line Monday night resulted in shuttle buses taking passengers from Braintree Station to JFK/UMass and on the Green Line, a broken track at Copley has forced shuttle buses to take commuters from Kenmore Station to Haymarket.

Both the Orange and Blue lines are also experiencing weather-related delays.
