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

Flooding caused more than 100 million dollars damage, but timely warnings kept the death toll down to just twelve persons. |
| 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. |

A famous Easter blizzard raged across Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota. Gale force winds blew the wet snow into massive drifts, however there were few deaths due to the sparse population and due to the gradual increase of the storm. |
| 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.
