Below are the all-time 3 day snowstorms across our state. The top 2 storms both were in our local area with the Blizzard of February 1899 at Coatesville with 52.4" and the 50.0" just off the PA Turnpike at Morgantown leading the way. Of note that same storm in 1958 also featured the 49" that was recorded just off the PA Turnpike at Devault. I have also included the hand written NWS COOP March 1958 observations for both Morgantown and Devault.My grandmother on my mother side was in Pennsylvania and where she was had nearly 4 feet of snow. Perhaps it was one of those towns, but I forgot the name of it. She said that was by far the worst snowstorm she ever saw and when we had the blizzard of February 1978 and I was impressed with it my Nana said it was like flurries compared to March 1958.That was just an incredible storm

See how much a place like Lake Placid has warmed, located in the middle of nowhere inside 6 million acres of wilderness, the largest windlerness in the USA. For example the lakes up there are down between three and four weeks of frozen lake time compared to the 1940s. Or Lake Champlain, that used to freeze over regularly but now it's down to an average of every 4 or 5 years.
