| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A low pressure system developed off the mid-Atlantic coast and moved over the Atlantic Ocean southeast of Cape Cod. This weather system produced the first important nor'easter of the season for much of the state. Snow changed to rain along the coast, especially from Boston southward and over southeastern Massachusetts, but elsewhere there was an accumulation of several inches of snow before a change to rain. Boston had 3.7 inches and Worcester had 5.0 inches. The heaviest snowfalls occurred over parts of Middlesex and Essex Counties. Newburyport, E. Woburn, and N. Woburn all reported 6 inches. The snowfall caused numerous fender-bender accidents and several tie-ups on interstate highways. |
