The major nor’easter is coming to an end, here are updated storm reports from the past two days. As of 3 AM EST, the highest snow amount was reported at T.F. Green International Airport (Warwick, RI), with a total of 37.9 inches, which would be the state record if verified. pic.twitter.com/uR08lYHGCz

RECAP! Providence had the biggest #snowstorm on record. Boston had 17.1" which was a daily record for Feb 23. Worcester has 13.9" which was a daily record too. @boston25 pic.twitter.com/KZ4zVLoJ6s

Snow's done falling… snowpack is deep. Long clean-up ahead. 3 feet in parts of SE Mass and RI. pic.twitter.com/e6rdOPRKFV

Near 30 with lighter winds today as the big dig is underway. Tracking a little more snow Wednesday. pic.twitter.com/zCsbL1O9Vb

WHAT A WINTER!

The blizzard yesterday has put Boston over 60" for the season which hasn't happened since the infamous snow blitz winter of 2015. Worcester now over 75" for the season #WCVB pic.twitter.com/yLWbPaOjZy
These are some of the highest snow totals in Massachusetts from the Blizzard of 2026.

New numbers expected with the next #NWS update on official snowfall reports around 7 AM. #wcvb pic.twitter.com/7HUQebAPxK
Another way of looking at this is that Providence now has a greater all-time snow event than Worcester. That's bananas https://t.co/OJPpBRxVLo

Looks like a snowfall map that got turned upside down! Typical high spots in the interior had the least, SE Mass, RI, and eastern CT got crushed. #wbz pic.twitter.com/hp45iTTOpx

I think the last time I recall snowfall of 30"+ in this part of Massachusetts was the 2005 blizzard. Anyone with a better memory recall anything between then and now? Plymouth had 38" then. pic.twitter.com/FfENexevQ8

Some peak gusts today. Just about identical to the 2022 and 2018 blizzards and below the 2013 blizzard. Well below 1978's winds.

Each big storm is just a little bit different. Wild to have these winds and such big snow totals in spots while also getting no big flooding. #wbz pic.twitter.com/Yq8KLsFBil
Approaching 11pm and power restoration has barely budged thanks to gusty winds and extremely difficult travel conditions in SE Mass

Provincetown, Truro, Wellfleet, Eastham, Orleans, Brewster, Falmouth, and Chatham all >90% without power pic.twitter.com/bc9TJp2cWR
