Saw this article and it sounded as if Marche had been hit again New snow blizzard sweeps across Marche region 09:4612 FEB 2012 (AGI) Ancona - A new snow blizzard swept across the Marche region, especially in the province of Fermo. The blizzard persisted throughout the night with gusts of wind with a speed of up to 80 km an hour. The whole province is self-enclosed and the roads of access are practically unviable, mountain roads are evenly covered by a thick layer of ice and not even the region's coastline has been spared. . .
Been and gone

Yup we did have a secondary bashing, but that was a couple of days ago. Now and for the next week or so it is looking like a slow thaw is underway (great !). It was about a two week bombardment which left us bunkered down pretty much unable to get the car out as we had about a metre of the white stuff. Our Comune were superb along with the protezione civile people. Also of great help to ourselves were members of this Forum who offered great advice and support. S
