It’s Monday, the sun is out and it is a beautiful scene. The area is still in a storm recovery mode though.
The late morning satellite image is mostly cloud free east of the mountains. The only exception is some low cloudiness in Virginia west of the Potomac River. The rest of the gray shading is the extensive snow cover from North Carolina into New England. It is quite asy to spot the river valleys cut through the snow cover.
The biggest snow accumulations were measured along an east-west line between Baltimore and Washington DC. In the metro areas, Bethesda and Columbia had the highest totals with 24 and 23 inches respectively.
The graphic above is produced by the National Weather Service and is an analysis of the snow cover as of Monday morning.
The list below includes the final numbers for snow reports gathered by the National Weather Service and its’ observer network.
