I always debate whether 2016 or 1996 were the best storm of my lifetime. 2016 was just unrelenting solid snow for 2 plus days. And is the highest single storm total of my life. I never thought I would live to see 40 plus inches in a single storm here. But 1996 was an absolute whiteout blizzard. Honorable mention to 2003 (PD2). Which is an underrated storm because the temps were marginal.
