But despite all that, Bostonians who spoke to ABC News said they were accustomed to the weather.

\"It's not that bad,\" said Brianna Gallagher, as the snow coated her New England Patriots hat.

\"I love it,\" she said, despite the fact that it's the third nor'easter.

\"I ski,\" she said. \"That's probably why this doesn't really affect me.\"

Gallagher said she might walk home from work, but added that she'd stay the night closer to work if the snow pileup became too much.

Kristen Salvaggio, a lifelong resident of the city, told ABC News she thinks the snow is \"beautiful.\"

She was still walking to work today, even as the snow was blowing sideways.

Salvaggio said she was expecting the wind to be worse, but that she'll walk home even if the wind reaches 60 mph.

Although it's the third nor'easter in days, John McDonald was upbeat.

\"I like the snow, this is New England,\" he said. \"I just don't want to see anybody get hurt.\"

Taymore admitted that warmer spring weather will be welcome, too.

\"I'm also a boater, so when spring comes, we want it,\" he said. \"Just wait a minute, it'll be beautiful in a couple of days.\"
