May 25, 2013
An area of low pressure developed on a stalled surface front in southern New England on May 24, and developed into a coastal storm that lasted through May 26. Widespread steady rainfall of one to two inches produced minor flood problems, especially for areas that flooded on May 23. Heavy wet snow fell at elevations above 1200 to 1500 feet, and the combination of snow load and winds of 25 to 35 mph caused power outages. The low pressure moved out of the area on May 26.
