The Mississippi River reached a flood crest at Saint Paul MN four feet higher than any previous mark.

| APRIL 16TH, 1851 |
The famous "Lighthouse Storm" raged near Boston Harbor. Whole gales and gigantic waves destroyed Minot Light with its two keepers still inside. The storm resulted in great shipping losses and coastal erosion. |

| APRIL 13TH, 1877 |
The second coastal storm in just three days hit Virginia and the Carolinas. The first storm flattened the sand dunes at Hatteras, and widened the Oregon inlet three quarters of a mile.
