The Carroll County Sheriff's Office says the body was discovered early Sunday morning. Authorities say deputies were called to scene, where they found an adult woman lying in the snow-covered road. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sheriff's office spokesman Cpl. Jonathan Light says the woman's identity is being withheld until her family is notified.
Light says the body has been taken to the medical examiner's office in Baltimore for an autopsy. The cause of death has not been determined.
As of Sunday evening, no additional details had been released.
