Winter Storm Hammers Cape

The winter storm that passed over the Cape and Islands dumped several inches of snow.

Chilmark had the highest recorded amount of nine inches, while Sandwich had eight.

Snowfall totals averaged about five to six inches in most locations.

High winds downed trees and power lines, and there were some scattered road blockages.

The highest gust was 52 miles per hour, taken at the airport on Martha's Vineyard.

Those winds are expected to continue to blow through this afternoon, with gusts up to 40 miles per hour.
