Numerous roads were closed and several homes were flooded in Lakeland due to the heavy rain. The combination of high tide and heavy rain put two feet of water over the roads near Bradenton Beach and 50 residents in an apartment complex in Palmetto were forced to evacuate due to the high water.  Finally, the Bullfrog creek near Gibsonton damaged severeal homes and vehicles.  Official rainfall reports included Saint Petersburg at 3.46" and Ruskin at 6.53".

A low pressure area from the Mississippi Valley rapidly redeveloped along the North Carolina coast early on Christmas morning. The storm then tracked northeast, along the atlantic coast, reaching just south of eastern Long Island by late Christmas night, while deepening dramatically. With plenty of cold polar air in place, the stage was set for a major snowstorm across southern Vermont. The snow began in earnest during the early afternoon. During the late day and evening hours, snowfall rates averaged 1 to 3 inches per hour. A foot or more of snow accumulated across the region.
