episode_narrativeA vigorous upper-level disturbance combined with available moisture and marginally cold air to produce a swath of wet snow from the Maryland piedmont to the Potomac Highlands. Only Allegany Co (MDZ002) received widespread accumulations of 4 inches or more; the remaining affected counties received average accumulations between 1 and 3 inches.Accumulations were highly dependent on elevation, especially in the foothills. In Frederick Co (MDZ004), lower terrain received 2 or 3 inches. However, along the western mountains, up to 9 inches may have fallen in Wolfsville. The same was likely true in neighboring Washington (MDZ003) Co. A similar effect occurred farther east, where 2 inches fell in western and northern Montgomery and Howard Cos (MDZ009>010), but plain rain fell in the southern and eastern portions. In general, the dividing line of accumulating snow was at 750 feet above sea level.
