This was the first February calendar day with 6”+in Providence and under 1” in Boston since at least 2000.

Chris did this also happen in May 1977? I remember Providence got 7" in that snowstorm somehow and Boston only got half an inch (0.5")?

How did Providence get much less than Boston in PD2? PD2 came from the south.....

Just looked at the February days going back to 2000. I know May 77 was another occasion. But it seems pretty rare in general for Providence to get a 6”+ calendar day and Boston to get only 0.1”.

Are we sure that wasn't an erroneous situation? I have a hard time picturing Providence getting 7 inches in May lol.  How could that happen when Boston had much less?  Providence is almost always warmer.

That was a very unusual event for May. This one was also a rarity for Providence to get a record daily snowfall over 6.2” and Boston only 0.1”.

a banding situation in both cases? is this also why NYC only saw a trace that May even though there was thundersnow?

I wonder what the temperature differences were in that storm too, NYC vs PVD vs BOS?
