A look at past March snow storms in Massachusetts

Yahoo13-03-2025

CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – There has been some nice spring-like weather this week here in western Massachusetts although some parts of the state saw a little snow Wednesday night.
The official start of spring is just a week away and most of the snow is gone in the Springfield area. But we can still get snow this time of year. One of the biggest March snowstorms we've seen was back in 1993 from March 12th through the 14th.
What time is the lunar eclipse in Massachusetts?
The superstorm of 1993, also known as the 'Storm of the Century', brought snow and high winds from Alabama to Maine. In western Massachusetts, there was more than a foot of snow from that storm. Most of the snow we get this time of year falls in the hills.
On March 13, 2018, more than a foot of snow fell in western Hampden, Hampshire and Franklin Counties. That was after more than a foot of snow fell a week earlier in the hills of Franklin County that same year. Right now it doesn't look like we have any snow in the forecast any time soon.
