episode_narrativeThe combination of high astronomical tides and an intensifying coastal storm tracking south of New England caused some of the worst flooding along the eastern Massachusetts coast in over a decade. Salisbury in coastal Essex County was hardest hit, where about 30 homes were surrounded by flood waters. Widespread minor to moderate flooding was reported in coastal communities from Gloucester to Duxbury. The high tide caused flooding in many basements and forced temporary road closures in Hingham, Marshfield, Quincy, and Revere. Morrisey Boulevard in Boston was closed around high tide at noon. In Hull, firefighters used a boat to rescue two residents after their house was inundated by several feet of water. At least two cars were stranded in Cohasset. On Cape Cod, flood waters surrounded several homes in Eastham and Chatham.The storm also brought heavy, wet snow to western Franklin County, where amounts as high as 6 to 8 inches were reported. The weight of the snow brought down tree limbs, causing scattered power outages.
