| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A strong low pressure system, which passed about 200 miles southeast of Cape Cod, brought heavy snow to Rhode Island. Over a foot of snow was reported west and north of Providence. The storm closed schools across the state, and created hazardous road conditions. This was the heaviest snowfall of the winter to date. The highest snowfall reported was 14.9 inches in North Foster. Other snowfall amounts included 14 inches in Clayville, 13.5 inches in Westerly and Middletown, 13.3 inches in Ashaway, and 12 inches in West Warwick and West Greenwich. Woonsocket reported 8 inches, and the greater Providence area received between 6 and 8 inches of snow. |
