Went sledding as a kid, and I remember thinking “if it snows this early, this is going to be a monster winter” (which didn’t necessarily transpire that way lol) I think it was the only storm that season lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I hear people say it can't snow and stick in November. I think about that storm and how i was stuck at school until midnight when the local rednecks with their trucks saved us. I remember riding up front in some super loud mudding truck with like 5 kids yelling out direction how to get home. The good ole days when adults didn't care about kids lol. I remember lots of thunder and lightning during that storm. I was in 3rd grade and still remember the evolution and temp profile as the storm progressed. I was only 3, BUT I to this day still vividly remember the thundersnow from it. I can picture exactly where I was in my parent's house in Pasadena listening to thunder while it snowed. That's my only memory of it. lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my only memory of it. lol That storm had the most thunder I've ever seen in my 46 years alive. I remember sitting in the school cafeteria during lunch that day. I remember flashes of lightning coming from these little windows along the upper walls. I remember the thunder shaking the building and it ripping snow around noon that day. Truly an amazing storm. I was in Crownsville MD where we had about 15" in less then 6 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted Thursday at 02:11 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:11 PM Vet Day storm of 1987 was awesome. Went to school with a forecast of flurries and by 10am we had 6”. Schools closed early and roads were totally boned. The bus had to stay on the main road and dropped us off a half mile from my house. Was so fun walking in the snow as it puked fatties 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At work we had to share a couple snow shovels to get out of our parking lot, since most shovels were still in basement/garage/shed summer hibernation. Following winter was reasonably good Jan, but lousy Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember all the 90s storms, but not quite the years haha. There was one in January, maybe 94? I got the chicken pox, right around new years, before the vaccine was available. Spent a whole week home from school. Then my sisters got it the following week or so, and it snowed. So I was out of school for another week able to play in the snow while my poor little sisters had the pox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted Thursday at 07:35 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:35 PM We're going to Wisp with a few other families the weekend of the first full week of February. We did the same last year between Christmas and the New Year...and it sucked. I mean...we had fun, but the conditions were truly awful. Watching the webcams now and really hoping we get into some good fun while we're there. I suppose that, if nothing else, we'll at least have some snow on the ground and more than half the lifts will be open! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
