An unusual late-season nor'easter has dumped up to 2 feet of snow across New England, collapsing the roofs of two buildings, knocking out power to 300,000, and causing widespread travel disruptions.
Storm Totals
Boston received 18 inches, Hartford 22 inches, and parts of Vermont and New Hampshire saw 24+ inches. The storm also brought 60 mph wind gusts that downed trees and power lines across the region.
Unprecedented Timing
This is the latest significant snowstorm in Boston in over 50 years. Cherry blossoms that had already bloomed were destroyed by the freeze, and agricultural losses are mounting.
