BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — This latest storm has become one of the biggest snowstorms in Boston’s recorded history, with a total of 23.2 inches, according to the National Weather Service.
This comes after the bulk of the storm dumped large amounts of snow on Sunday, with additional snowfall throughout Monday helping push this storm to become the 8th largest storm.
The NWS reported that snowfall totals in Boston reached 20.2 inches at 7 p.m. on Monday, placing it as the 10th largest storm at that moment.
However, by the end of the day, the snow had stopped falling, and the city received an additional 3 inches, which moved the storm up to the number 8 spot.
The total comes in just behind our last major storm, the blizzard of January 2022, which dumped 23.6 inches on the city over the span of two days.
The 2003 Presidents’ Day blizzard remains the biggest snowstorm in the city’s history with its historic 27.6 inches, which slightly edged out the infamous blizzard of 78’s total output of 27.1 inches.
The weekend storm also entered the top 10 biggest snowstorms for Worcester, where the city received a total of 22.4 inches, putting it at number 9 on their list.
