| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | On the first day of spring a major winter snow storm struck the region. Low pressure moving ever so slowly across Pennsylvania was responsible for the snow, and this low also brought strong winds with gusts up to 40 mph. It was a heavy wet snow which ripped down power lines and trees. Roads became snow covered and slippery causing numerous traffic accidents. With temperatures near freezing, the snow amounts were dependent, to some degree on minor changes in elevation. The least amount of snow accumulated in the low lying areas near the Ohio River. Snow amounts ranged between 3 and 6 inches across many areas, but only 1 or 2 inches fell right along the Ohio River. |
