Well here on the west coast, we NORMALLY get less snow than most of the US, although this year has been pretty exceptional, we have probably had a total of about 25 days with snow. Usually, we get a week or two in January, thats about it, but this year, we have had quite a bit. We had a REAL dump, we had about two feet at one point this year. The last time I remember having that much was 1968!
