| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Heavy wet snow developed during the morning hours on the 27th and continued until the morning hours on the 28th. The snow mixed with sleet and rain at times during the evening hours on the 27th. Snowfall amounts were mainly from 8 to 20 inches with maximum snow depths mainly from 4 to 12 inches. The heavy wet snow closed schools, businesses, and church services and stranded people in homes and vehicles. There were numerous traffic accidents, some with injuries indirectly attributed to the storm. The weight of the snow knocked down utility lines, trees, and tree limbs, resulting in thousands of people without power. |
