BOSTON — Now that it is July, it is easy to think of Boston’s record snowfall last winter as a bad dream.
These days, you can walk outside without dressing in multiple layers. You can see your car when you stand next to it. Even the subway is running (more or less).
But if you want a reality check, come to the Seaport district, where you will find an astonishing residual artifact from the glory days of February: a 12-foot-high frozen mound, a remnant of the record 110.6 inches of snow that accumulated in Boston over the winter.
Yes, some of that snow is still here. No, it has not all melted yet. Yes, it is July.

How many dead winos do you think we’d find if we tore down that pile?
I only read of one body being recovered from a melting snow pile this past Winter.
Then there’s the 5,000-year-old Iceman they found a few years ago in the Alps.
Ship them here to California.
Anyway, the snow doesn't melt as fast when it is piled up like that by evil humans. Stop the snow plowing now! Save Mother Earth!

The glaciers are starting to form.
Which science would that be? Pretty sure I'm good with actual science. Voodoo man-made global warming based on CO2 content, not so much. That's not actually a science or even based on a science.

Ice-out guessing contests are a sure sign of winter’s end in New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee area, and Alaska environs which have been going on since the early 1900’s.
BOSTON, July 14 (Reuters) - The last vestige of Boston's record winter snowfall - a heap of filthy snow in a parking lot near the harbor - melted under a hot July sun on Tuesday, leading the governor of Massachusetts to declare the end of the city's winter "nightmare."
The pile in the city's historic Seaport District had at one point stretched up to 14 feet (4.3 meters) high, but as temperatures climbed in July, five months after the last major blizzard, the garbage-filled heap finally turned into a puddle.
"I'm pleased to announce ... the pile officially melted today," Mayor Martin Walsh wrote on Twitter.
