We hear that there are still people trying to get home on alternate routes after the closing of Rte. 1. The road remains closed in both directions, even with the sunshine we’re enjoying across New England today. Drying out takes some time (don’t sit on the grass either – wet butt). Following up on the YouTube related post we did yesterday when we told you that the two videos we had collected weren’t worth watching – today we’re putting something up that might even be considered citizen journalism. It’s not closing the digital divide but it certainly gives you a front seat view – something you won’t get from Channel 5. The short clip shows driving through partially flooded roads near Methuen and the reason why the videographer didn’t make it into work yesterday (the parking lot was a pond.)
