Light Snow Dims but Lifts Sparse in Frederick Area
Light snow coated Frederick this morning with just over an inch measured. Forecasts predicted 3 to 4 inches at most as brisk north winds moved powdery flakes across mostly clear roads. Police said the snow emergency plan was not in effect and county crews prepared salt operations while city crews cleared main streets. Ice on Cull er Lake was only two inches thick, not enough for skating, and the Schley Inn Ski Slope opened at 10 a.m. with a crowd awaiting runs. An intercollegiate skiing tournament is planned by Hood College, Shepherd College and Mount Saint Mary’s.
