MSP's records at the time were right downtown. It could be argued that the UHI was more acute in the 1930s than at the airport location now. Of course, since the dust bowl was partly anthropogenic, you wade into other territory...
I had 24.7" in the first and 9" in the second, but with compaction and drifting it never really seemed like there was more snow around on Feb 10 than there was on Feb 6.
That's funny. Honestly, I was just venting about not seeing snow and somebody in the thread asked about the snowless drought. I did the initial stat gathering, but Ian deserves most of the credit for the nice writeup and figures.
