Boston is smack in the middle of the biggest snowstorm we've seen in a couple of years, and the TV stations are doing their wall-to-wall coverage thing.

Through the storm surge reports, the snowfall total updates, and the messages of "stay off the roads," these intrepid journalists have found people who can only be described as "Peak Boston."

Take a look at these sound bites that WBZ Channel 4 found while interviewing some of our more dedicated citizens out and about during the storm.

Like the swallows back to San Juan Capistrano, beckoned by the bat signal that is another Boston blizzard, the Yeti is back.

If you recall the lore, the Boston Yeti first appeared on the streets of Boston in 2015, a year of many snowstorms, when the city needed a hero.

The Yeti, often spotted clearing sidewalks and freeing buried cars from drifts, reemerged on Friday night on his Twitter account after several members of the populace wondered of his whereabouts.

"I’m not feeling salty about this pending snowstorm. In fact, I’m EXCITED! It looks like this storm is gonna be a doozy. Btw, I’ve missed you all," he tweeted. "Be safe and stay Yeti ready. See you in the snow xo. #bostonyeti"

The reactions of citizens exploded on Twitter Friday night, and we've captured a few below.
