| episode_narrative | A slow moving cold front, combined with a plume of tropical moisture moving in from the south, combined to bring heavy rainfall to much of central and eastern Massachusetts. The heaviest rainfall was centered along the Interstate 495 corridor in Norfolk, Worcester, and Middlesex Counties where totals of 5 to 6 inches were common. As much as 6.60 inches fell in Franklin. Totals elsewhere generally averaged between 3 and 5 inches.The heavy rain caused significant urban and poor drainage flooding. In Boston, the 4.71 inches of rain which fell set a new daily rainfall record at Logan International Airport. The Central Artery and portions of Morrissey Boulevard and Quincy Shore Drive were submerged under feet of water and shut down. There were numerous reports of flooded homes in Newton, Natick, and Framingham, all in Middlesex County. Portions of Route 9 in Framingham were submerged under feet of water. In Worcester County, the 2.35 inches of rain that fell at Worcester Airport set a new daily rainfall record. |
