The highest elevations of New England picked up six to 12 inches of accumulation. Snow showers made it all the way to the coast in many cases.

Record low maximum temperatures and record lows were set.

For most of New England, this is the coldest May weather we’ve seen in decades.
It stays breezy into Mother’s Day, but it will be warmer with temperatures up around 60 degrees.
Showers and thunderstorms will be possible during the day on Monday with temperatures in the low 60s again.
Cooler weather moves in for Tuesday and Wednesday, but at least the sunshine will return.
