FROM TODAY'S PRINT EDITIONS:
Okay, so this isn’t about Maryland weather. But it’s pretty close to home. Marylanders are still talking about last winter’s snowfall, which piled up 50 inches of snow in February at BWI-Marshall, the snowiest month on record for Baltimore. Well, this month the State Climate Extremes Committee declared a new monthly snowfall record for West Virginia. The 158.2 inches that buried Bayard last February shattered the previous record of 104.0 inches, set at Terra Alta in January 1977.
