A low pressure system traveled from the lower Mississippi Valley into the lower Ohio Valley on Saturday, December 15th. This low then redeveloped just off the Delmarva peninsula by Sunday morning, December 16th, and intensified rapidly, becoming the primary low center. This low then tracked into the Canadian maritimes by Monday morning.
This storm system brought a significant mixture of snow, sleet and freezing rain to the region, beginning early Sunday morning, and persisting into Sunday night.
Total snow and sleet accumulations of 8 to 14 inches fell during this storm, with the highest amounts across portions of Bennington County.
This heavy snow and sleet led to the closings of numerous schools and businesses Monday morning, and also created treacherous driving conditions Sunday into Monday.
The combination of strong winds, and the extra weight of heavy wet snow on tree limbs also downed trees and powerlines in portions of Bennington County during Sunday.
