Does Volcanic ash count? We got a bit of that. Our Forums Fourm member that lives in Valdez is probably always going to set the high bar when it comes to real snow. Valdez records annual snow falls in excess of 20 Feet, and has a record snow fall of just shy of 50 feet, something like 47 feet. They don't measure in inches there, it's feet. One year, while working on the pipeline, we had a 5' storm, followed by a 4' storm, then another 5' storm, all in just 3 days, 14 feet! About ever 4th house in Valdez has a modified bobcat, that has a snow blower on long arms in the driveway. (this part could be an exaduration!)
