Of course, it has.  Since my birth in March 1946 there have been 8 storms of 24"+ at places where I was then living and 3 came in a 5-year period in NNJ.
The eight:
12/26-27/1947   NNJ
3/18-19/1956   NNJ
3/20-21/1958   NNJ
2/3-4/1961   NNJ
12/26-27/1976  Fort Kent, but I as visiting family in NNJ that Christmas week.
3/14-15/1984   Fort Kent
12/6-7/2003   New Sharon
2/22-23/2009   New Sharon
That NNJ run of 2-footers also included another 4 storms of 18"+, 2/15-16/58, 3/3-4/60, 12/12-13/60 and 1/19-20/61.  It would be another 8 years before the Mayor Lindsey storm hit that mark and 9 more before 2/78 reached it.   Nothing in my Maine experience (49 years on Jan 23) comes close, for 18"+ or 24"+.  From Jan 2015 thru March 2018 we had 4 storms of 20-21" but that big storm period is well isolated before and (so far) after.

We've discussed this probably before george was born, But 2'r are not that common.

The rain/snow line has kinda held right over my house near EWB. Weather channel just changed my hourly to all snow. I don’t know too much about the weather but is the cold kinda winning the battle up there?

Column gets colder as we go further into the evening, so rain should change to snow in most places where it is still raining....outer Cape and Islands might be slower though.

All I know is we were supposed to hit 39 today and the highest it’s been is 36. With my ape brain I can figure out it might snow if the wind is from the colder directions. Says it’s ENE which means it’s colder than coming from the south.

 

I just want it to snow a little! Hahaha.
