@narayani@eevaliisa thank you both. We ended up getting 37 inches which is a record breaking storm by far. Yes it certainly is a shame about the loss of life. A lot of heart attacks from over- exertion from shoveling.
Oh my word. That looks bleak. And yes it made the news here too. I wondered why people were dying from shovelling snow. Didn't realise it would be heart attacks. Thought of hypothermia.
