According to city council member Ed Bowman some spots measured 14 inches of snow Wednesday.

Since December 1, 150 inches have fallen in the town with about a foot coming down everyday for the past few days.

A backhoe in town worked to push snow away from the street, building snow piles 10 feet high in spots.

That’s also causing some problems with power, since trees have collapsed onto power lines.

Power was also knocked out to the pump supplying water to the town. A team went to investigate, knowing that it was critical to keep a propane powered generator running.

At Kane's Marina, a section of roof collapsed after four feet of snow cracked the support beams.

So far, no injuries were reported.

Bowman said the town has asked federal agencies to help with clearing the snow -- since there’s no where else to put it.
