| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm developed along the Georgia coast on the 27th, then intensified as it moved slowly northward along the coast later on the 27th and 28th. The cyclone, which tracked to the Virginia capes by late afternoon on the 28th, spread a variety of winter weather across portions of western Maryland during a 24-hour period. As had been the case with other episodes during the 1997/98 winter, accumulations varied greatly with elevation. In Washington Co (MDZ003), accumulations were generally 1 to 2 inches, with up to 3 inches at higher elevations. Accumulations were even more varied in Allegany Co. Between 2 and 4 inches fell from the Allegany/Washington Co border to just west of Cumberland, at least a foot fell in Frostburg near the Allegheny plateau. Allegheny Power reported 200 customers without power in Allegany Co alone. |
