GRANTSVILLE, Md. (AP) - Nearly half a foot of snow has fallen in parts of western Maryland.

The Baltimore Sun reported (https://bsun.md/2iNLFo5 ) Friday that a trained weather spotter reported 5.5 inches of snow in Oakland and in New Germany State Park in Grantsville.

No accumulation was reported as the flurries made it over the mountains and through Montgomery, Howard and Anne Arundel counties. The Baltimore region saw only flurries.
