AITA for parking in an open spot after 12” of snow?

AITA for parking in an open spot at my apartment complex?

After parking and getting out of my car, my neighbor (who I don’t know) shouted from her car “That’s very rude of you, I spent all morning clearing that spot”.

It wasn’t the only spot.

Before parking, I passed 2 other open spots and could see 3+ spots just ahead.

There’s 200+ spots and I’ve never seen the lot even close to full.

I re-parked right away, but only because I didn’t want to escalate the situation.

I don’t feel I did anything wrong, but AITA?

How was OP to know the neighbor had spent all morning clearing that spot? If it’s true, I can see why the neighbor would be annoyed.
