March 25 (Reuters) - The first Monday of spring brought snow
instead of sunshine along the U.S. East Coast, snarling the morning commute in the densely populated stretch betweenWashington and New York.
A storm that had dropped significant amounts of snow across
the Midwest over the weekend rolled across Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and New Jersey, bringing a slushy mix of snow and rain
that prompted school closings and contributed to traffic
accidents around the region.
The National Weather Service had winter storm warnings in
effect from Massachusetts to South Carolina, with as much as 10
inches (25 cm) recorded in mountainous parts of West Virginia
and up to a foot (30 cm) expected in Pittsburgh.
