Spring has usually made some type of appearance by now, but “April brings along what March left behind” as the old adage goes. For example, on this date in 1956, the snow was still piling up over the mountains. After a snowy March, one last snow storm topped things off across the southern Green Mountains. In Somerset, at an elevation of nearly 2100 feet, another 11 inches of snow fell, bringing the snow on the ground to 47 inches.
