A winter storm dropped 4 to 7 inches of snow across the Maryland Eastern Shore from the late afternoon of the 2nd into the early morning of the 3rd. This caused hazardous traveling conditions for the evening commute on the 2nd and the morning commute on the 3rd. Many vehicles skidded into ditches. The blowing and drifting of the snow that persisted into the 3rd left many secondary roads in poor condition on the 3rd.  Peak wind gusts from the northwest averaged 35 to 40 mph. After one day of classes after the winter break, many schools were closed again on the 3rd.
Precipitation started during the late afternoon of the 2nd. It started as snow in Cecil and Kent Counties, and as rain farther south along the Eastern Shore. The rain changed to snow between 6 p.m. EST and 8 p.m. EST that evening.  The snow fell at its heaviest during the late evening, otherwise at a fairly steady rate through the night. The snow ended between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. EST on the 3rd.

Representative snowfall totals included 7.0 inches in Greensboro (Caroline County), 6.5 inches in Elkton (Cecil County), 6.1 inches in Millington (Kent County). 6.0 inches in Easton (Talbot County) and 5.3 inches in Stevensville (Queen Anne's County).

The winter storm was caused by a rapidly intensifying low pressure system. The low was moving through the Ohio River Valley on the morning of the 2nd. Meanwhile an arctic high pressure system near Montreal supplied an ample supply of fresh cold air. At 1 p.m. EST that afternoon, the low pressure system reached West Virginia.  From there, it reformed farther to the southeast and was over northern North Carolina at 7 p.m. EST that evening and passed east of Elizabeth City, North Carolina around 9 p.m. EST. Once it reached the coast, it started to intensify rapidly as it moved eastnortheast. The low pressure system went from 998 millibars at 10 p.m. EST on the 2nd to 981 millibars located at 40 degrees north latitude and 65 degrees west longitude at 7 a.m. EST on the 3rd.

One of the harshest arctic outbreaks in years occurred across the Eastern Shore on the 7th. Record breaking calendar day low temperatures occurred and combined with strong northwest winds produced wind chill factors as low as 10 to 20 degrees below zero in most areas that morning. High temperatures struggled to reach double digits. The excessive cold caused many schools to have delayed openings. AAA Mid-Atlantic reported an 81 percent increase in service calls, mainly for dead batteries. Amtrak reported extensive delays in its rail service. The cold weather also affected power supplies. PJM Interconnection, the agency that oversees the electric grid supplying the region, said electricity suppliers were struggling to keep up with surging demand as the cold forced some power plants to shut. An all-time winter record usage was recorded at 8 a.m. EST on the 7th, 138,600 megawatts surpassing the previous record from 2007. Utilities asked their customers where possible to switch to diesel or fuel oil.
Actual low temperatures included 10 degrees in Salisbury (Wicomico County), 8 degrees in Royal Oak (Talbot County), 6 degrees in Tolchester Beach (Kent County) and Tuckahoe (Caroline County), 4 degrees in Centreville (Queen Anne's County) and 3 degrees at the Baltimore-Washington International Airport and Perryville (Cecil County).

Lowest hourly wind chill factors included (they all occurred during the morning of the 7th) 18 degrees below zero at the New Castle County Airport in Delaware, 12 degrees below zero at the Bay Bridge Field (Queen Anne's County) and 11 degrees below zero in Easton (Talbot County).
