These maps show New England's huge — and in some cases flooding — rainfall by the numbers, and what it means for the drought.
We have had quite the rainfall event across southern New England in the last couple of days.
Major flooding occurred in Rhode Island on Monday around Providence. And on Tuesday, flash flood warnings were hoisted twice for areas in and around New Haven. Radar-estimated rainfall had a good handle on actual reports across the region, with 2-5 inches in a swath across southern Connecticut through northern Rhode Island, and 1-3 inches of rain in much of northern Massachusetts outside of Route 128.
But it seems that the coast really missed out on this much-need rain, with areas on Cape Cod to Boston only receiving half an inch to 1 inch of rain.
