Heavy Snow Impedes Traffic Across Eastern States
Blustery March winds and a weekend snowstorm crippled transport from the Atlantic coast to New England. More than 40 inches of snow froze ground in Maryland and New York, isolating communities and closing schools as drifts blocked highways and trains. Coast guard crews ferried 22 sailors after the Oakey L Alexander broke in two off Cape Elizabeth. High winds and wrecked moorings disrupted ships along the New England coast, while rescue efforts aided stalled passenger trains near Hagerstown. Temperatures dipped across the South and Midwest with scattered rain in the Mississippi Valley and chilly conditions persisting in many northern states.
