BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A potent March snowstorm blanketed much of Alabama with up to 4 inches of snow Sunday, covering Civil War statues and forcing the cancellation of hundreds of church services.
The storm headed toward the Northeast and threatened to drop up to a foot of snow in the Philadelphia area, 13 inches in New York and 15 inches across southern New England late Sunday. In Georgia, the snowfall made roads treacherous and delayed flights, while in Alabama, more than 210 churches had to cancel morning services.
Vonda Braswell of Alabaster, Ala., was throwing snowballs in her front yard instead of putting on her Sunday best.
“I think you can worship in this, it’s so rare,” she said.
