| episode_narrative | A low pressure system developed off the North Carolina coast and a nor'easter accompanied by heavy, wet snow began during the late afternoon and early evening on Easter Sunday. The maximum snowfall accumulation of 6 to 10 inches from this storm was measured on grassy surfaces and snow boards and was reported from several parts of the state, including a small area on western Cape Cod near Falmouth and Sandwich, which had 6 inches. Other areas on the Cape and Martha's Vineyard had from 2 to 5 inches. Parts of Bristol and Norfolk Counties and most of Worcester and Middlesex Counties had 6 to 8 inches. Similar totals were reported from higher elevations of Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden Counties. The maximum amounts included: West Townsend, 8.0 inches; Shrewsbury, 7.8 inches; Blue Hill Observatory - Milton, 7.0 inches; and Norton, 6.7 inches. Boston had only 1.3 inches. Road surfaces and other pavements had only slushy accumulations, except in higher elevations. Temperatures remained slightly above freezing and snow stuck to trees and wires, resulting in a few scattered power outages. |
