A historic late-season blizzard paralyzed the U.S. Northeast, bringing major cities like New York, Boston, and Providence to a standstill. The storm dumped over a foot of snow across at least eight states, with Central Park recording around 20 inches, Long Island over 22 inches, and Providence hitting a record-breaking 32.8 inches — surpassing the 1978 blizzard. More than 500,000 people lost power as infrastructure struggled under the severe weather.
Transportation systems collapsed as airlines cancelled over 11,000 flights and major airports filled with stranded passengers. Meteorologists described the storm as one of the most intense late-winter events in years, exposing vulnerabilities in power grids, travel networks, and urban preparedness.
