A low pressure system developed off the Mid-Atlantic coast and moved up the east coast southeast of Nantucket producing snow, rain, and ice across Southern New England. Widespread two to four inch rainfall amounts resulted in small stream and poor drainage flooding as well as some minor river flooding. In addition, there was some minor wind damage from strong northeast winds, especially along the coast.
