The weather on Saturday could surely be described as odd, if not eerie, by most folks’ standards. While snow fell in fat, ground-covering flakes, the sky also lit up with bolts of lightning and the air rumbled with thunder. Parts of Garrett County received up to 8 inches of snow, while other areas, not far away, were covered in only a skiff. Definitely a strange day, captured well in this photo of Rotary Park in Oakland, taken by Dmitry Ostrogorsky. The sepia tone is real, not added in a photo program. Most of the county was indeed covered in soft, deep snow by Sunday morning, all of it melted by Monday afternoon, when the mercury rose into the mid-70s. The forecast indicates a warming trend now, with only rain predicted and no white stuff for the foreseeable future.
