A major spring storm system has impacted the Northeast, particularly affecting the Great Lakes region and moving east towards northern New York State through northern New England. Forecasters predicted heavy snow, rain, and high winds. Parts of New England were expected to receive more than a foot of snow on Wednesday, with heavy rains soaking the East Coast. The storm has caused significant disruptions, including over 25,000 power outages in Massachusetts alone. A broader impact saw the storm dumping rain and snow with tropical force winds across the Northeast, leading to major airport delays, white-out road conditions, and knocking out power to over half a million customers. Reports indicate that more than 680,000 outages occurred due to the storm, with New Hampshire experiencing over 100,000 outages. The National Weather Service noted that the storm brought significant springtime snowfall to northern New England on Thursday, with rain lashing much of the coast and causing extensive power outages. Some areas received up to two feet of pasty snow.
