A Lewiston nor'easter fills a narrow dooryard faster than seems fair, drifting in behind the house where the wind curls off the roofline. V's snow plowing works those tight in-town driveways and the wider ones out toward the edges — plowing, clearing turnarounds, and shoveling steps and walkways so a door will actually open. There is a deadline built into every storm: buses roll early, shifts start early, and the drive has to be ready before either. Getting there first is the entire job description. By the time the sky lightens over the river, the street is a row of clean rectangles.
