MARSHFIELD, Mass. — While in-land communities saw as much as 2 feet of snow with the nor’easter, communities along the coast faced destructive surf, flooding and erosion. High tides led to coastal flooding in several beach towns, with waves crashing over seawalls and flooding low-lying areas overnight.
