River Road Flood363 viewsA rainstorm on March 29 and 30 wreaked havoc on Massachusetts, leaving the Commonwealth in a state of emergency. The real fall-out didn�t arrive until March 31, when water tables reached record heights and dams in the region were tested to their maximum capacity.

The Mattapoisett River overflowed its banks, shutting down River Road for a day. Photos by Tim Smith.
