| Event narrativeevent_narrative | Heavy lake effect snow developed during the early morning hours on the 10th and continued on and off (mainly inland) for three days before tapering off to a few snow showers. Temperatures near or above freezing each day and the warm March sunshine kept roadways mainly wet and travel problems were confined mainly to the night time and early morning hours. Winds gusted to 40 miles per hour at times on the 10th, and diminished a bit each day, but drifting snow was a problem throughout the event. Snow depths reached six inches by 11 AM on the 10th. Total snow fall amounts generally ranged from six to eight inches, with higher amounts of 24 inches in Edinboro, 22 inches at Franklin Center and 12 inches at Corry, all in Erie County; and 22 inches at Spartansburg in Crawford County. |
