Total snowfall: 062 centimeters

Greatest snow event: 20 centimeters

We had our greatest snowfall of the season yesterday: 20 centimeters. That beats last winter's greatest snowfall by a third, but that's not saying much. In the middle of the storm we had an hour of freezing rain. That makes five times this winter. More snow is expected over the next two days - we could have more than a foot of snow on the ground by Tuesday.
