Heaviest Snow Since 50 Snarls Nelsonville Traffic
Nelsonville residents spent Sunday digging out after the heaviest snow since Thanksgiving 1950. About 12 inches fell on level ground with drifts up to three feet. Police and the city plow crew opened routes for one way traffic as cars slid and a single minor accident was reported. The groundhog’s shadow hinted at a later spring.
