Tuesday March 13 2018

That band of snow overnight was persistent and dropped between 1 and 2 inches of snow north of Baltimore and across southern Pennsylvania. This made up for the missed snow last week, at least for teachers and kids with school delays in York County. Temperatures dropped into the 20s and wet roads iced up.  The storm is departing now but the winds will be whipping to 40 mph. Wind restrictions are in effect in area bridges.

It will remain chilly all week and there may be more flurries or snow showers. Then we set out sights on a little warm up this weekend. The outlook however shows more cold trying to fight back over the next two weeks.
