In the city of Boston, Mayor Tom Menino praised the public works crews for doing a good job removing the snow from city streets.

Menino said they city towed over 500 cars, but there were no real major problems reported yesterday.

For today, Menino is urging people to take public transportation to ease congestion on narrower-than-usual city streets.

He also has a reminder for those digging out their cars this morning: "When you dig out, don't throw (the snow) on the street, put it to the side."
