The early March snow storm is rapidly diminishing this midmorning from south to north after at least a half foot of accumulation across most of the Washington, D.C. area.
As expected, the snowfall was more significant on average across the southern and eastern suburbs as accumulations in Charles, Calvert and Anne Arundel counties in Maryland near the one foot mark in scattered locations. Less significant amounts hit the north and west suburbs though a morning rush hour burst brought periods of heavy snow there as well.
The combination of winds and snow also brought scattered power outages to the area, most concentrated in the Chesapeake Bay corridor served by BG&E and Southern Maryland reaches served by SMECO.
The Capital Weather Gang blog is featuring continuing updates on weather conditions as the storm winds down across the Mid-Atlantic.
