Low pressure tracked northeast from the North Carolina coast Saturday morning, rapidly strengthening as it passed well south of Nantucket Saturday evening. As the storm intensified, colder air from aloft was drawn into New England resulting in heavy snow in the interior. ||Snowfall accumulations of one to two feet were common in the Monadnocks, Berkshires, Connecticut Valle
