Heavy Snow in Western Hampshire, Massachusetts

Heavy Snow February 25, 2022 · Western Hampshire, Massachusetts

What the National Weather Service wrote

Snowfall generally ranged from 4 to 6 inches.

The wider storm

A mid level trough lifted from the Mississippi River Valley into the central and eastern Great Lakes Friday morning, continuing into New England by Friday night. Low pressure lifted up the TN/OH Valley Friday night into Saturday with a secondary low developing south of the south coast early on Friday and lifting offshore by late Friday. This brought in snow, overspreading the region from southwest to northeast roughly between 12 and 4 am on Friday the 25th. Snowfall rates reached 1 to 2 inches per hour in spots but a warm nose pushed north changing many locations over to sleet and limiting accumulations for the southern half of the region.
