March 2013 Snow

Winter Snowfall Totals

  

It's been quite a winter so far with snow, ice and frigid temperatures not only here in Maryland but all over most parts of the country.

  

Here in Maryland we've seen our share of snow and bitterly cold temperatures that are making this winter one for the record books.   By now most of us have had it with the snow and are ready for spring. But keep in mind, it's just February. Winter hasn't lost its grip just yet.

  

Here is a recap of some of the snowfall totals seen in around Maryland so far this winter:

As you can see, the big winner so far this winter is Westminster with a total snowfall total of 36.8 inches, followed closely by Elkton with 34.8 inches.

 

Groundhog Day was February 2nd and Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, which means 6 more weeks of winter. Looking at some of the forecasts he's probably right!
