sweetapricity/bridgedeck-noaa huggingface dataset:
A winter storm moving along the Canadian border brought warm air northward over a shallow layer of cold air over the Middle Mississippi Valley. This created a broad area of light freezing rain, sleet and freezing drizzle over Eastern Iowa, Northeast Missouri and Northwest Illinois.  A few snow flurries or patchy light snow mixed with the freezing precipitation at times.  Ice accumulations were light and generally less than a tenth of an inch. However, ground temperatures in the middle and upper 20s allowed for a thin layer of ice to form on many road surfaces. The main band of freezing rain fell 20 miles either side of an axis from Muscatine Iowa to Princeton Illinois.  Several accidents were reported.

A rather innocuous looking low pressure system brought heavy rain into the Maryland Eastern Shore from the afternoon of the 21st into the early morning of the 22nd.  Rain began falling just after midnight on the 21st and was on the light side until around noon EST. The rain was heavy at times from the afternoon of the 21st into the early morning of the 22nd. Rain lingered at a lighter intensity throughout the rest of the morning on the 22nd. Storm totals averaged between 3 and 4 inches. There was considerable ponding of water in low lying and poor drainage areas, but no serious flooding or injuries were reported. The worst reported flooding along the Eastern Shore occurred farther north in Cecil County. Storm totals included 3.6 inches in Federalsburg (Caroline County) and 3.17 inches in Easton (Talbot County).The low pressure system responsible for the heavy rain was located near Savannah, Georgia the morning of the 20th. It moved very slowly northeast and at 7 a.m. EST on the 21st it was located near New Bern, North Carolina.  The central pressure of this low  was about 1017 millibars, higher than normal sea level pressure. The low slowed even further and was located just off of Parramore Island, Virginia at 7 a.m. EST on the 22nd. Its central pressure remained quite weak, only about 1018 millibars. The low then moved quickly out to sea during the day on the 22nd. Just as, if not more, important was a strong blocking high pressure system that remained over the Canadian Maritimes throguhout this event. It slowed the low pressure system's progress and helped establish a prolong and moist southeast fetch from the Atlantic Ocean throughout this event.
