The snowstorm that plagued the Atlantic Coast this past weekend dumped snow from Georgia to Massachusetts, including North Carolina.  The State Climate Office of North Carolina posted an article today describing the impacts of the storm on North Carolina.

In the story they also note that the 41 inches of snow received at Mount Mitchell on Saturday may have set a new record for the most snow in a single day in NC, which is currently 36 inches on March 13, 1993.  Any time a new potential record is set, however, especially in challenging conditions like a blizzard, the measurements have to be studied carefully before a new record is declared, which could take a few months.
