Frederick, Maryland, was turned into a sudden winter wonderland by snowstorm on Saturday 12 March.

A day after the temperature in Frederick reached 63F (17.2C), a monster low pressure system tracked up the east coast of the United States dumping upwards of 6 inches (15cm) of snow in the area on Saturday March 12.

The storm prompted blizzard warnings in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, produced over 50 mph (80.4 kmh) wind gusts, tornado watches and severe thunderstorm warnings in the south, and freezing temperatures all the way down to northern Florida.

All these conditions came just hours before clocks are set forward for daylight savings time in the US.
