See East Greenwich Snow Totals From Super Bowl Winter Storm
At most, Rhode Island was supposed to see 6 inches of snow, but those initial forecasts got dumped all over, including in East Greenwich.
EAST GREENWICH, RI — While most of us were warm inside watching the Super Bowl Monday night, Mother Nature had less relaxing plans for Monday morning, since were all shoveling out of a surprisingly potent snow storm that moved across Rhode Island.
Most forecasts called for Rhode Island getting 6 inches of snow at most, but most communities, including East Greenwich, far exceeded that. According to the National Weather Service, Barrington got 9.2 inches of snow.
The snow also forced East Greenwich to delay trash by a day for the rest of the week.
