Yes I remember those days to, 1979 here was classic with 20 foot drifts and -13c at night. 1978 Feb snow was deep and I remember helicopters dropping food for animals, but it all melted so quickly. 1986 -1987 were very cold here, we had a month of snow 10 feet deep and the 10 inches of snow all blew into drifts. The best snow for sheer beauty was 2010 when we had 9" which remained un thawed for 10 days and a very white christmas with some night lows of - 16c I must admit I miss the blizzards, ahh those days when my 3 brothers would grab our torches and walk around the fields measuring how deep the snow was drifting! oh well may be this winter will give us the blizzard of awesome depths.
