| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A low pressure system that developed in Oklahoma the morning of the 8th, moved northeast into the lower Ohio Valley the morning of the 9th and then moved eastsoutheast exiting the United States mainland along the North Carolina/Virginia border during the early morning of the 10th. The low passed close enough to the Eastern Shore to bring snow to northern areas and heavy snow to southern areas of the Eastern Shore. Accumulations reached six inches in sections of Talbot and Queen Anne's Counties. The heaviest snow fell from the Maryland State Route 213 and U.S. Route 301 intersection in Queen Anne's County south. Accumulations were lighter farther north as little if any snow accumulated across northern Cecil County. Snow began around noon on the 9th and fell heavy at times from the start. The heaviest snow was over during the early morning of the 10th. Lighter snow or flurries persisted through the morning of the 10th. In Queen Anne's County sixteen vehicles slid off roadways, half of them occurred between Queenstown and the Bay Bridge. Most of the accidents and injuries were minor, but there was one major head-on collision. In Talbot County, there were seven accidents in the Easton Area, most were vehicles that slid off United States Route 50.Accumulations included 6 inches in Stevensville, 5 inches in Easton, 3.5 inches in Centreville and 3.3 inches in Federalsburg. Accumulations ranged from 2 to 3 inches in northern parts of Queen Anne's County to 5 to 6 inches in the southern part. A similar spread occurred in Caroline County as accumulations ranged from around 3.5 inches in the northern part to around 5 inches in the southern part of the county. Accumulations farther north along the Eastern Shore were two inches or less. |
