| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A low pressure system which formed off the New Jersey coast during the early morning hours of March 31st intensified rapidly as it moved to a position 60 miles south of Newport, Rhode Island. This system retreated to the south during the early morning hours of April 1st, pulling in cold air from the north. The center then moved slowly eastward. Heavy snow and strong winds produced near blizzard conditions during the early morning hours of April 1st. Heavy snow generally accumulated between 12 and 20 inches across the area. An isolated maximum amount of 26 inches was reported from Wilton. Some other totals included: Francestown, 20 inches; Weare, 19.6 inches; Nashua, 15 inches; Manchester, 14 inches; and Keene, 12 inches. Travel was very difficult during the storm, but road conditions improved rapidly after snow ended by late morning. Power outages affected only about 6,000 electric customers statewide in New Hampshire. |
