Roads in Woonsocket were drive-able, with care, Friday after the storm, and locals were out in force shoveling the snow or playing in it, or both.
On Social Street, Main Street and Court Street, as with most streets in the city today, a thin layer of snow remained on the cleared road. Pedestrians throughout the city shared the roads with cars and trucks, with little choice in the matter, as sidewalks were largely uncleared.
On Main Street, Victor Torres was shoveling the walk outside Ocean Cafe. He wasn't working for the owner, he said, just "Doing a favor for them," and trying to stay warm.
On Harris Avenue, Elijah Marcotte, owner of Wicked Good Ice Cream, was using a snowblower to clear his walk. He said it was very cold, despite his bundles, hooded coat, face mask and goggles.
Have a look at these scenes of Woonsocket citizens digging out after the snowstorm, and check back tomorrow for a sledding gallery.
