| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A weak low pressure system developed over Virginia the night of the 10th along a secondary cold front. As the low moved northeast and reached Block Island Rhode Island during the morning of the 11th, a swath of light snow accompanied it during the pre-dawn hours. For most places across central and northern Delaware, this was the first measurable snowfall of the season. Accumulations though were light, mainly between 1 and 2 inches across Kent and New Castle Counties. Just a trace of snow fell at Lewes. Since the snow fell very early on a Saturday morning, few accidents occurred. |
