Ohio: - "Studded tires are permitted, November 1 to April 15"

Yep. 26 degrees here in Rome, NY. It was 19 degrees overnight. Had to brush snow off my car, and scrap ice off the windows this afternoon when I went out. Winter Storm warning from tonight until 10 a.m. tomorrow. Calling for 8-10 inches.

Most people in NJ don’t have snow tires. We don’t get enough snow to justify the cost and storage headache. Instead everyone has all-weather tires. So that means that for most people here, this small snow in Nov is no different than a deep one in Feb, from a tire perspective.

1950 - The Great Appalachian Storm - November 24 - Nov. 30.

This was a large cyclone, which brought the eastern United States to a standstill.

Significant winds, heavy rains, blizzard conditions and hurricane-force winds killed 353 and injured 160. The cyclone impacted 22 states, disrupted power to 1,000,000 customers and created $66.7 million in damage. In 2016, damage costs would be equivalent to $668 million.

Snowfall of 57 inches was measured in West Virginia. New Hampshire recorded a winds at 160 mph at Mount Washington. Nearly the entire state of Ohio was blanketed with 10 inches of snow, with the highest report of 44 inches.

This cyclone rapidly strengthened as it moved up the eastern side of the Appalachians. Coastal flooding occurred from New Jersey northward.

It initially formed in southeastern North Carolina on the morning of Nov. 24 and dissipated Nov. 30.

1971 - Snowfall blankets northeastern U.S. - November 24–25

The same coastal storm that brought over an inch of rain and peak wind gusts to 63 mph in New York City unleashed more than 2 feet of snow to parts of northeastern Pennsylvania.

Snowfall began the night before Thanksgiving. By about noon on Thanksgiving Day, more than 2 feet of snow was reported on the ground in parts of northeastern Pennsylvania. Some of the surrounding areas had upwards of 30 inches.

“Roads weren’t plowed until the next afternoon. Everyone had to get around on snowmobiles,” AccuWeather Meteorologist Dave Dombek said.

This was an extremely wet, heavy snow, as temperatures through much of the storm never got below 31 degrees Fahrenheit. The snowfall caused barn roofs to collapse, downed power lines and broke tree branches.

“The most amazing thing about that storm was that most of the snow fell within 12 hours. There were times when it was snowing at the rate of 2 to 3 inches per hour,” Dombek said.
