Ouch sorry for that memory being jogged. The real anomaly was the cold that was enveloped and stuck around. It wasn't your typical April snow melting the next day to oblivion. As 8611Blizz pointed out above, the snow was around for a while. It wasn't until late on the 3rd day after the storm did we even break freezing. Truly wintry in April for almost a week. As crazy as 4 1 97 was, this storm and the cold after was record setting. 4/7/82 is still the coldest April day ever seen in SNE, and the coldest 3 day April period ever. One could easiily argue the most wintry April period on record.
