Still Digging Out!
Whether you’ve experienced it yourself or seen it on the news, you know that the east coast got slammed with record snowfall over the past two weeks. Areas in Western Maryland reported just over 30″, which breaks the 2003 record of 28.2 inches.
Here are the previous top ten snowstorm records for Baltimore:
•28.2 inches on February 15-18, 2003
•26.5 inches on January 27-29, 1922
•22.8 inches on February 11-12, 1983
•22.5 inches on January 7-8, 1996
•22.0 inches on March 29-30, 1942
•21.4 inches on February 11-14, 1899
•20.0 inches on February 18-19, 1979
•16.0 inches on March 15-18, 1892
•15.5 inches on February 15-16, 1958
•14.9 inches on January 25, 2000
It’s exciting to experience this kind of history, but definitely not as exciting to have to dig out of it! The cities and towns are doing their best to regroup and get things back on track. Makes you wonder if the old addage “no two snowflakes are alike” can really apply in this case! (technically it can’t, but that’s another blog subject!)
