Sorry,I never heard of the Mn. Halloween blizzard 15 years ago.

WOW...that's some picture,but it isn't nearly as bad as the blizzard that hit New York City in 1888 and my great grandmother lived through that one.The drifts were 15 feet high.

Not to be too picky,but a few years ago Conn. got close to 200 inches that winter.Some of us have to deal with far more snow,on a regular basis,than you seem to know.Forty inches in 2 days? We're supposed to get 30+ in TWENTY FOUR HOURS. :-p

LOL!! Just wait a minute. I'll find some photos of a Duluth storm back about the same time frame, where people exited their homes from their chimneys! If I can find the pics again, that is!

My state storm can beat up your state storm.............LOL

I hope everyone is safe and warm, at home. I'm sure the blizzard out east is terrible to endure.

You talk inches "Not to be too picky,but a few years ago Conn. got close to 200 inches"

Some of us talk FEET of snow.
