Winter Storm Ultima brought another shot of snow to New England, leading to travel advisories and some early school dismissals. Travel also was affected, especially in Maryland, where a series of accidents forced officials to shut down Interstate 68 for an hour on Friday.

New Englanders told the Associated Press they're tired of cold and snow, but they'll deal.

"I'm sick of it," said Donna Bohan, 52, a lifelong South Boston resident. "I want to not have to wear my boots, and I want to be able to take a nice walk. But we can handle a bit more. We're New Englanders. We're tough."
