There's a guy here in Michigan who has a G scale train set in his yard.
He even has a snow removal locomotive for it. 😂
Living in north of Syracuse, NY, in school we learn about the Lake Effect Snow Machine. I live just a couple of miles inland from Lake Ontario. This lake is large enough that you can not see land on the other side. Because of the specific heat of water, and the large amount in the lake, it doesn’t usually freeze over during the winter. Since the lake usually doesn’t freeze, it keeps our temperature kind of mild compared to other areas in the US during winter. (We usually get a few sub zero days, but mostly in the teens to low twenties which is below freezing point.) Over the lake, which is warmer than the air, is a “warm” moist air mass just sitting there. Depending on the jet stream, and an upper level disturbance, a cold frigid wind called an Alberta Clipper will blow across the lake. This wind pushes the warm air mass over land and mixes with it causing lake effect snow. (Snow flakes are usually big and puffy from this and 25mm or larger across.) Sometimes this can last for days on end. When my daughter was born in February 2007, we had a week long lake effect storm that hit Oswego County pretty hard. Some areas got over 156 inches of snow or more during this event. (Funny story. Some European news crews came to our area to do reports on the snow fall. They all got snowed in in their hotels.) Now Millie mentioned the snow being higher than she is. Funny thing about this fluffy lake effect snow is that it settles over time and compacts. For example let’s say a storm dropped enough snow to be up to her shoulders in height. In a week with no additional snow, it will be between waist to knee deep. My area is also affected by Nor’easters.
A reason why Alaska is not number 1 for snow fall is because during the winter months it can actually get too cold to snow. Now they will get blizzards, but blizzards don’t always produce snow. A blizzard is the temperature being below a certain point, with winds blowing at a certain speed or higher, over a minimum amount of time.
I lived in Central Square in the 60's. 4ft overnight was common.
I believe I heard the same things about blizzards in Antarctica. It's too cold to snow much, the blizzards are just fallen snow being pushed around, which is why Antarctica is classified as a desert. I think so anyway
In michigan in my childhood snowmobiles were occassionaly cars and snowshoes were a must. So i left...
I lived in Maine a total of 23 years. I remember the year my daughter was due. (the day she was due) it snowed so deep that only snow mobiles moved for three days! good thing she came early. The snow was up to our windows. And the nearest city to us was Bangor that is a 3 hour drive south!
Must have lived near Caribou.
Imagine snowmobiling to the hospital to have your baby. That would be crazy
@@georgeditzel3504 I lived in Limestone and Presque Isle.
@@julielifejusthappens1232 Caribou and Loring AfB 1973-1976
We moved to Maine in ‘89 from Mass. I’ll never forget that first winter. We had 8 ft snow banks at the end of the driveway and then January came; 2 weeks of -20f to -40f. Never forget opening the door and the fog-bank rolling into the house just covering the floor. Lol.
Hard to believe my home state of Minnesota did not make the list. It has all the best winter conditions, snow, cold (-40° F or C) and wind! Worst blizzard I can remember was St Patrick day 1965. A drift 10 ft high on the street in front of our house. Took 4 days for the city to remove the snow with a front end loader. In other places power lines had to be dug out from the snow.
Live in MN
Not this year😅
The st Patrick Day Blizzard was the only time St Cloud closed all their bars ( highest number per county in US). My Medieval History professor put on snowshoes to try to find an open bar to no avail. this was the only thing I learned from that class and remember to this day.
I can actually believe it didn't make the list. My experience living in Michigan is that you get very little snowfall when it gets extremely cold -- there's not enough moisture left in the atmosphere. Of course, Minnesota is on the wrong side of the Great Lakes when it comes to lake effect snow.
The two identical snowflakes were found when taking samples for a study on air pollution. But later it was discovered that a for given weather parameter (ie barometric pressure & temperature) you could determine its shape and indeed have many identical flakes, it's just that nobody looked real hard before.
This year the Wasatch Front mountains in Utah I received over 700 in of snow thus far. That amounts to over 60 ft of snow
This guy's list is highly suspect. Utah averages 78.4" a year. I've skied Utah every year since the 70s. I remember some very good snow years, but I've never seen a year like this one. I made the trip out there from Maine five times this year because the snow has been so phenomenal. The snow banks are taller than the bus on the way up the canyons. I've hit Solitude, Brighton, Alta, Snowbird, Snowbasin, and Powder Mountain this winter. Just looking at the weather again today and it looks like Alta is going to get significantly more than 800" of snow this year. That total is mind numbing. I'm hoping to make at least one more trip before the ski season ends.
The east coast gets Nor'Easters which cause blizzards. Snowmageddon in Wash. DC was epic!
One thing about northern Minnesota and North Dakota the snow does not melt during the winter. This results in the depth of the snow to stay all winter. Some winters have so many blizzards that the snow is drifted to the top of barns.
this year Mount Washington had a wind chill -103
the reason behind the study of Snowflakes is the crystalline structure of them. A scientist was basically doing a side hobby studying snowflakes in particular while doing other work on crystalline structures and found two identical ones. So they did more experiments and found it was actually pretty common. They have a book that shows some of the most common types of snowflakes!
It's really basic math when it comes down to it. The tons of snowflakes that fall, and the number of possible shapes of the flakes....there's going to be duplicates. It's just a matter of someone having the patience and desire to actually study them enough to find duplicates. That's why it's considered so rare. Not many people are willing to do that.
He had the time to compare the snowflakes because he was ...(wait for it)... snowed in.
The town of Mammoth Lakes, Ca. has had around 800 inches of snow so far this year. Much of the town has 20-30 feet of snow on the ground. The ski resort that sits just above the town regularly hosts ski races into July most years. One year the resort had skiing until mid-August.
in michigan snow flakes are regularly about a centimeter across, give or take, you can see if theyre the same with the naked eye.
ive regularly wanted to own a flamethrower to melt my lawn.
California has crazy snow this year. Tens of feet at a time this year. 20 to thirty feet at a time a couple of times this year.
Nevada as well, no shocker there. We just got another few inches of snow in the mountains, not that we're complaining though.
700 inches around Mammoth
This year in part of Utah the weather man started doing snow predictions in feet!!! It’s been a crazy year for many areas in north west US!
Yeah, I'm up here in the northern mountains of Utah. We've been getting dumped on. 😂
Utah averaging 78.4 inches a year gets no mention. I wonder where this guy get his information. I remember as a kid growing up in Morgan, Utah, I built a snowman in July.
@@bcool2044 I live in Morgan! We've had several homes collapse from the snow in the last few days. SO. Much. Snow.
@@meg8391 That's very unfortunate, but I believe it. Especially with how wet and heavy the snow can be. I remember snow piles being high enough for me to walk up on the roof of my house as a kid and sled down.
In Wyoming it really only snows once.
It then spends the rest of the winter blowing around so everybody can enjoy it!!!
Have lived in Massachusetts most of my life. We had so much fun on "snow days" off from school. The blizzard of 78 I will always remember. Our neighborhood took care of each other making sure people had food and it took days to shovel out.
Upstate, NY. Just north of Syracuse. We get 'lake effect' snow. Check out Bizzard of '66 in Syracuse. Also, weird fact, sometimes it snows in my backyard but not the front yard.
I grew up in Liverpool and remember the '66 - many stories to tell of that one! Also remember the sun shining and snow falling. Totally get the snow in the backyard and not in the front.
Do remember that when you are ranking by state, various parts of each state vary in topography. But my money would have been on New England for lots of snow. I moved to Denver when I was 11. That year the first snow was Sep 2 and the last May 23. I also was snow falling in June.
I live in Vermont and we have gotten over 4 feet off snow in the last two weeks added onto the 6 feet we got so far this winter.
I have seen it snow in June several times in Vermont. There have even been years when people were skiing the first two weeks of June.
We've had to dig out pretty good in Denver a few times, back to back blizzards leaving maybe over 4' behind
Even my state, New Jersey surprisingly gets more average snowfall statistically than not just states like Oregon, and Washington state, but also New Jersey gets more average snowfall than even Illinois, and Indiana. And even the coastal areas of New Jersey is colder than cities like Seattle, Portland Oregon, Vancouver, London, Paris, etc. Atlantic City, and Ocean city New Jersey, all get 15-20 inches of snowfall on average every winter and because Cape May is closer to the Gulf of Saint Lawrence than to the Gulf of Mexico it is more so influenced by the Labrador current off the coast of the state. Despite Cape May New Jersey being milder than D.C, Cape May is still not warm enough to have tropical palm trees year round there, as Cape May is actually colder than Seattle, Suchi Russia, and even Vancouver Canada. Northwest part of New Jersey by itself gets surprisingly more snow than cities like Detroit Michigan, Chicago Illinois, and Windsor Canada, because of higher elevation.
funny how her face lights up when the narrator says they r waiting for the next 12 incher.. haha.. just funny is all
No snow, and practically nothing cold at all here in Miami.
I would suppose the scientist studying snow flakes was doing it as part of crystal formation studies. Which is pretty important in materials research.
That was my guess. Crystal formation due to different sounds and other factors is actually a cool study. Studying crystalline patterns in general is a major part of quantum physics.
13:45. I live on the border of Massachusetts and New Hampshire. We just get pummeled with snow from October until the end of March. Luckily this year was a mild winter. I think I only had to shovel/snow blow 60 inches of snow. Previous years I was digging out 80-90 inches of snow.
Heh, upstate NY here and it's currently snowing. It looks like we've got an ugly cold front coming through.
I'm watching it out my window right now!
I live at 8,000 feet (2438 meters) elevation in Colorado and the video was certainly correct about one thing, we get the best snow, if only the 4th most. Colorado powder is awesome, and Steamboat Springs ski resort snow is so great it was given the name Champagne Powder.
\
I live in Syracuse NY! We say the weather is always unpredictable here. You can plan all you want but never count on the weather person being right.
I have visited many ski areas during the winter in the USA and most of the hotels I used had outdoor hot tubs or heated pools. It is actually a nice contrast between being in the hot water while surrounded by snow.
Pretty sure it's healthy for you.
This channel deserves more of your attention. Nick does some great work and really examines his subjects.
Buffalo, NY had a ton of snow this year. They recently got 7’ of snow from one storm. I have also lived in New Hampshire and now live in Colorado. Snow wasn’t too bad this year but it’s only spring, so you never know. 😅
You guys should check out some of the videos of the recent California snow. It was unbelievable with snow being like 2 or 3 stories deep.
It’s always mind boggling when the snow fall is measured by feet not inches.
Yep they should see the snow in Magic Mountain big bear and Yosemite. There was even a Tornado in LA.
@@stevedavis5704if this snow season keeps it up for much long we may have to start using fathoms 🥴
Nearing April and we just received snow last night and more to come this weekend.
The swimming pool shown in Wyoming is the Granite Hot Springs pool, it’s naturally heated mineral water. It’s a bit of a hike to reach it. There are many places in the Rocky Mountain states where you can swim in hot springs pools.
Buffalo, NY did get 7 ft in one day. It was a big news story here, because there was suppose to be a football game at Buffalo Bills Stadium. They had to cancel. There was an estimated 220,000 tons of snow in the stadium. Cars stranded, doors covered. Crazy. I am on long island we get snow but not 7 ft in a day!
Here in Wisconsin we are expecting a huge winter storm within the next 24 hours. Within a week the Major League Baseball season begins which means Milwaukee will most likely play its home games at AMERICAN FAMILY FIELD which is a retractable roof stadium, with the roof closed. Also, Eagle River hosts the annual World Championship of Snowmobile Racing.
I live in Wisconsin too and it's a damn snow storm every weekend now......still. Right below Milwaukee, Racine! Hi Millie & James! Congrats again!
@@jeankrewl6006 Minnesota here. I love winter, but I'm done this year. This most recent snowfall is supposed to be anywhere from 2-8" of snow. We're going to go right from winter to summer this year...again. No spring.
Minnesota kids pick out their Halloween costume based on how it fits with your warm clothes 😂
The South Shore of Lake Superior in northern Wisconsin gets well over 4 feet of snow thanks to Lake Effect Snow, but it's the difference between the northern & southern halves that brings it down to 4 feet. Lake Superior rarely freezes over completely & the wind off the lake creates lake effect snow. That's why towns on shores of the Great Lakes have the most snow in their states - there's some that get it from multiple lakes. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan has houses with doors on the 2nd floor without any decks - that's because they get dumped on by lake Superior & Michigan.
There was a blizzard in the mid 1970s that my family got stuck in the car in on the way home from my aunt's farm in Central Wisconsin - it was beautiful, warm & no snow there & as we got closer to Duluth & Lake Superior, the Lake was churning out lake effect snow & we were stuck on the highway with many other cars until the next morning. That's how fast weather changes here!
Glad I live on the north shore and not the south. They seem to get the brunt of the snow.
I live in Alaska and while this in mostly accurate, because our state is so large (bigger than Texas and California combined), the average for the state is lower. We have 3 separate ecosystems here - rainforest (SE Alaska), Taiga (the forested areas), and tundra. It is big and the land of extremes. I have over 6 feet of snow out my window right now, and it can get down below -40 in temperature. But in the summer, we can get up to 90 degrees. It's a wild place
Alaska is officially the coldest state in America.
but keep in mind that some parts of these states get tons of snow and some get relatively little. Lake effect areas and higher elevations tend to get the most regardless of state.
Don't gotta worry about a bear in your snow pool. they hibernate in the winter. Unless, of course, it's a polar bear ^.^
I think the reason that mineralogists study snowflake crystals is to see how ice forms, why it forms differently and what weather conditions have effects on it’s formation, and to see how it behaves and try to figure out why.
Wisconsin here, we have had more than 43 this season.....maybe only 43 since January....but more to come i am sure!!
I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma and it has snowed as late as April. We had 6 inches of snowfall last March. The weather is crazy here! In March it could be 95 degrees or be snowing and in the 20s.
I'm originally from MA, and when it snowed a lot, school was canceled. Of course, these off days had to be made up at the end of the year, which means that there was a shorter summer vacation. Now, since Covid happened, school still happens, except online from home. These school students won't know the joy of listening to the morning school cancelations in anticipation of your school being canceled for the day.
The kids get text messages or emails when schools closed these days. We'd have to get up at 5 AM & watch the bottom of the screen like it's the NFL draft. You look away for 3 seconds & of course miss your town & would have to go through it again
I live in Minnesota and wegot 92 inch of snow this year.
I'm here in Buffalo NY. We got 5 1/2 feet of snow. Most of us were snowed in Christmas Eve until the day after Christmas.
Hawaii gets snow. 1 month ago Mammoth California got a whopping non stop of 18 feet of snow in 3 days. The photos were shocking.
Massachusetts here. Part of the state jets out far into the ocean, while other parts are far from shore. The ocean acts as a buffer keeping the shore regions slightly warmer when it’s cold out, and slightly cooler when it’s warm out.
I actually live in Upstate NY where we get a lot of Lake Effect Snow. In fact I lived on the Tug Hill Plateau for nearly 23 years until I moved down the hill to a small town below the Plateau. I remember one winter where we actually went sledding off the roof of the house, and stood on top of the snow banks as the plows went by. Good times. I think I actually have a photo of that somewhere. Honestly of the things nature can throw at you. Snow is the least scary to me, so I will stay where it snows alot.
You also get Nor'easters.
@@davidcosta2244 Yep. and depending on which direction it comes from will depend on if it is wet and heavy or not. This year some how we missed out on the snow but the towns north and south of us got hammered.
I was born in Massachusetts in 1978 we had over 4 feet of snow in October that same year our youngest Son was Born
Check out the video entitled "The Blizzard of 78". I happened in the Boston area, It was crazy.
I live in one of the states Millie mentioned at the start, North Dakota.
That’s probably the only advantage of being in the top 3 of coldest states is that it’s often to cold to snow here.
The averages are figured over 10 year periods. The Northern Midwest states have varying winters when it comes to snowfall. Some years we get enough snow to make the Top 5 list of snowiest states other years we don’t.
In 2022 our winter average was 89”. This year it’s barely at our 10 year average of 39”.
The top states in this video have geographic characteristics that keep their year to year average up.
I’m thankful we don’t have mountains or gigantic inland seas to deal with here when it comes to snow accumulations.
Like Wyoming, the wind is tough enough to deal with blowing around the snow we do get.
Too cold to snow there? That’s so interesting to me since everything north of you all has snow.
@@marieneu264 Saskatchewan, which is directly north of ND, averages less snowfall per year than North Dakota.
@@marieneu264 I certainly wasn’t implying that it doesn’t snow here. The statement that it has to warm up to snow is very well known in Northern climates.
It has something to do with moisture content of cold air vs warmer air.
This is anecdotal but it seems when we are in frigid spells we only get light dustings of snow. When it warms up a bit and when the humidity goes up seems to predicate the larger storms.
My comment is an observation of the reason non snow belt states have more cyclic snow total winters than snow belt or mountainous states because we don’t have the static geography to produce repeatable results.
Not sure what your issue was with my comment?
@@mjc1389 I had zero issue lol. I just thought it was an interesting fact. Calm down buddy!
Growing up in New Jersey there were times my parents had to jump out the 2nd story window to get to the porch to clear the snow off it so you could open the door.
People don’t realize how much snow we get here! It’s actually snowing right now lol
@@ZachWilsonsMomsFriend Even my state, New Jersey surprisingly gets more average snowfall statistically than not just states like Oregon, and Washington state, but also New Jersey gets more average snowfall than even Illinois, and Indiana.

@@beazrich2.017 I’m from northern jersey and I remember Halloween being cancelled one year by Christie because of a snow storm! Everyone is surprised by how much we get
I was in the big Blizzard of 1978. I have a picture of me, my sister amd father out in the snow.....it was over my head. Then one year we had an ice storm on Easter. It was so bad cars couldn't even get to the road let alone drive on it. My grandpa's car slide out of our driveway and into a ditch.
I live in northern Indiana and yesterday was 50°f and today it snowed and then became around 40°f.....last year it was 70f and then snowed and was back to 70 in the same week.
I live on the coast of Maine about 35 miles north of Portland. I've lived here my entire life, I'm almost 67. I was very surprised that Maine made the list. In my area this year we got less than 2 fee, 24 inches of snow and most of that fell in 2 storms. When I was younger, maybe into my 40s we got a lot of larger snowstorms and it was colder. When I was a kid we used to be able to drive cars on some lakes, ponds and rivers. Now some of them don't freeze enough to walk on.
I love your videos comparing our differences.
I grew up in NY, but most of my adult life has been in RI. The ocean for sure screws up our snow potential. Usually we get blah cold rain along the coast and of course we're mostly coast. NW corner of RI is our snow capital!
I was surprised that Colorado was so high, with only 67" of snow per year. Higher on the list than Michigan and Alaska? And we hear about snow in Buffalo, every year. They must be talking about high up in the mountains, but most of the population doesn't live up there. Denver has occasional blizzards, but they usually melt off pretty fast. I honestly saw more snow in Nebraska, when i lived there.
I live in a suburb of Denver and you are absolutely correct. We get the occasional blizzard in the foothills and plains areas of the state, but the mountains get the bulk. But then again, that's why Colorado is such a popular ski destination.
Most people in Wisconsin would love that song at the end, say things to make fun of us and we will wear it like a badge of honor. We have a good sense of humor. That is why we we wear cheeseheads, because other states called us that in a derogatory meaning.
And Rodgers shaved the porn stache. That was heinous.
We’re pretty easy to make fun of. We have weird ideas when we’re drunk, and we’re well known for being drunk.
@@lindathomas6685 I’m so tired of that man.
Me too! Prima Donna!
@@lindathomas6685 As of a day or two ago, I heard Aaron Rogers is going to the Jets now and leaving the Packers. He may be ridiculous as a person, but he really has been a great quarterback for a long time.
The narrator is none other than Nick Johnson, who covers America in great detail on his channel.
I live in northern Vermont, in a snow belt. Got a couple of inches last night. 45 minutes away from Canada, depending on road conditions! A plow just drove by.
I moved from Michigan to New Hampshire. I thought Michigan was bad. It snows there a few times a week from October to March or April. In New Hampshire we don't get as many days with snow but when it shows it hits hard. We had a nor'easter a few weeks ago and I couldn't even see my car in the driveway. When I went to bed it was there. When I woke up it was completely gone under snow. My wifes van was barely visible.
Cali has been exceptional this year. N Dakota down to Kansas is scary because of blizzards.
Lived many years in Burlington, Vermont down on the shore of Lake Champlain. Average was 72 inches per year there. And up in the mountains the total is much more. The year I left there on March 24th we had a nearly 2 foot snow while we tried to load the moving truck.
It hasn't gotten much better.
We hear our pools in winter, my brother keeps his pool at 90 degrees and hot tub at 102 all winter long so we are often swimming during snow storms . Honesty nothing more amazing than wading in 90 degree pool with family and friends while it’s snowing out. Your head is out of the water but the steam from the pool keeps your face warm. It’s awesome. Come to utah US and I’ll give ya a free love to experience it you two!
I have lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin all but 10 years of my life. We have not had as much snow in the city I live in for some time. I don't live far from Lake Michigan either so lake effect snow is common here too. We have had some bad winters here in the past though, so looking forward to making more snowmen in the future.
I've been in Maine all my life.i remember the blizzard we had in the early 60s. They had called for snow flurries. But once the storm got here, it stopped moving for over 24 hours. We had 36 inches of flurries. I've never believed a weatherman since. We were snowed in for about 4 days. The dairy farm has a limited milk capacity. After the second day, we had filled everything we could, and 3 days of production went down the drain. Eventually, the milk truck got their to haul it off. But we lost a lot of income that winter.
11:52 In the winter of 1971/72 , Paradise, at 5440' elevation on Mount Rainier near Seattle, Washington, got 1122 inches (93.5 feet) of snow.
Here in N.E South Dakota. The first week of April, we are expecting 24 inches of new snow by Wednesday.
One year while in the Air Force stationed in North Dakota, I left work after my 12hr shift. A blizzard hit that night and on returning to work in the morning the entire building was completely buried in snow. The entire all available personnel from the entire squadron was called in to shovel and snowblower them out. It took almost all day. By the time we could get the people out the building they had worked almost 3 12hr shifts, and had to break into the snack and coke machines for food.
Fun fact before we moved from CT to TN in 2010 we traveled around the Eastern US in a 38' Fidth wheel. Anyway early in the trip in February we were kicked out of the campground in Georgia as a snowstorm was coming so we headed to Florida a bit early... Anyway that snowstorm ensured that for a few hours there was snow on the ground in all 50 states that day which almost never happens.
Minnesota here and it’s still snowing.. just broke a record of 5 straight months of over 10 inches . Think we are at 120 inches this year
After living in the Antelope Valley (NE corner of Los Angeles County/SW corner of the Mojave Desert) for almost 30 years, I'd grown accustomed to less than 1/2 an inch of snow once every 2 or 3 years -- which would melt off in less than less than 24 hours. This year has been weird.
You two were not alone in finding the weird little song about Wisconsin at the end to be an unexpected twist.
Dude has The Smurfs song as his intro 😂
The person that was standing in what they said was 7 feet of snow, normally when you are standing or walking in deep snow you are seldom actually standing on the ground but on top of a few inches or up to a foot of snow that packed up under your feet
I drove through Wyoming this winter and dang the snow was crazy, thankfully my little car could handle it without chains. I drive in colorado during the winter a ton and it’s not horrible to drive in snow but other drivers can be idiots so I avoid it at all costs. There’s people who wear shorts and tshirt in negative temps(I’m one of them) I’ve been to my rainier too and snowshoeing up there is so fun
I am from Vermont. We have had snow in every single month but August. It actually is common to see snow the first week of May. In 1968, in Worcester,VT it snowed the first week of July. I am not saying this because I heard someone say it. I witnessed it. In the Valentine's day snow storm about 10 years ago, we got 39 inches in a single snow storm in one day. My car was buried up to about 2 inches from the roof.
Born and lived in Michigan until 17, then moved to Alaska and have been here for 41 years. Being that this is the "average" snowfall/accumulation, as large as Alaska is, we do get higher averages in some regions than Vermont, but methinks they average the entire state....so a smaller state like Vermont would win that race every time. Many hundreds of miles of island chain without much snow skews the metric a bit. I am here in Fairbanks and have seen huge snow falls in the past. Also, we have got so much better removing it, so it doesn't impact things much. We even have schools open at -45 (and sometime lower) degrees farenheit with buses chaining up and getting those kids to school. I enjoy your vids and wish you both health and happiness!
It snows in Hawaii on the Big Island. One will get sunburned during the day and the temp falls below freezing at night. I have a friend who was born and raised in South Dakota and she wouldn’t leave the south for anything. During snow storms, the wind blows so hard that it can literally knock one down.
We just got another 6 inches 2 days ago. Sometimes we see snow into June.
I live in Duluth MN. It snow's here every year. We have 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and construction 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I grew up in Michigan and on lake Michigan 66 to 78 and I think we had a total of 2 snow days, you could get a few feet over night and you still walked to school, no big deal.
This year here in my home state of Maryland or at least in my hometown we didn't get any snow at all except for like a little bit maybe once or twice but then it became slush and melted from rain. It was probably one of the warmest winters on record here in my hometown.
I'm in Glen Burnie. It's crazy how little snow we got. However, I'm paying for it in the form of an early allergy season!!
James and Millie, "No se" is Spanish for "I don't know", in case you didn't get the joke. :)
During the pandemic I went 8 months without internet and TV, besides through our smartphones (which we didn't have streaming services at the time). I cannot imagine what people in earlier times dis while being snowed. We at least stocked up on board games, coloring/activity books, had dvds, and a dvd player. My family is from Colorado so snow is no big deal for them, while I grew up in Southern California.
Here in Mississippi we get a whopping 4 or so inches of snow a year! And once the first snow flake hits the ground, everyone flips their shizzzz
1:48 Antarctica is basically a desert. They get very little snowfall; it just never melts.
I live in Southern NH. We get plenty of snow. But if you look how the mountaina go up Vermont, across upper NH into Maine, they get WAY more snow. I am in the flatter part 30 min from the ocean so we get it a little bit better.
Dover N.H area? I am originally from Southern Maine, N.H., and Boston. I miss that area. You can go to do many places in just an hour.

@@paulsmith8510 oh Manchester. Nice area.
I grew up in the northermost part of The Upper Peninsula in Michigan then moved to Colorado about 27 years ago. The UP gets way more than most of Colorado with the exception of the Rocky Mountains!
we got over 80 inches this winter in minnesota, not even on the list lol
Childhood 3 story home, dad had to climb out 3rd story window with snow shoes bc they were snowed in for so long they had no more food. That was in Maine
.
Been to Vermont... Lovely state, great people, beautiful scenery, phenomenal food (maple bbq, cheeses, farm to table goodness)... Wouldn't wanna visit in the winter.
if you go south for warmer winters , you get unbearable summers. Personally I'll take a colder winter it is easier to put on a coat then a air conditioner.
Sometimes here in Minnesota they have to shut the roads down, can't believe we weren't in the top five. I think we have more winter "toys" snowmobiles, etc sometimes just to watch it blow over to the East. Sometimes we have blizzards on Halloween or even in April and May. Sometimes it's too cold to snow. Everything gets frozen and echoes. If the snow is heavy, we have huge plows that begin at 4am...
Mt. Baker in Washington State has the record for Snowfall in a single Season, which is North of Mt. Ranier
Wow,I have not watched your channel for quite a while. Thank you for reminding why!
Minnesota averages 47 inches of snow per year, more up north where I live. Snow totals so far this winter is 80.0 inches, which takes us from our 11th snowiest to the 8th snowiest winter on record. The record for the snowiest winter here was set in 1983-84 when 98.6 inches (a little over 8 feet) of snow fell. I remember on Halloween of 1991 (I think) when we went into a bar/pub in the early evening with no snow on the ground, when we left several hours later, we already had 3 feet (36 inches) of it.
Duluth usually gets about 86 inches of snow, but it's over 100 inches this year & are moving up on the list each time it snows. I am on the Iron Range & we have had lots too..
The Halloween Blizzard was in 1991 - I was 19. Our neighborhood wasn't plowed out for the 2 miles to either closest towns in many days. My dad borrowed a neighbor's loader & made a loop through the neighborhood so neighbors could help each other if needed.
Here in Oregon 29 of March 2023 we still getting some snow in higher elevations. Video didn't mention Idaho, Northern California and including higher elevations of Southern California that snows there. Heck Nevada gets a lot of snow too (Donner Pass)... and even snows sometimes in Texas. Snow is important in providing adequate snowmelt to sustain the ecosystem. In SW Oregon I've seen it snow into early June.
Technically, the weather service in Duluth MN says that the only month northeastern Minnesota hasn't seen snow is July, but I have actually seen snow on the 4th of July on Lake Vermilion - I live on the Iron Range 60 miles north of Duluth. I guess there weren't any trained weather spotters up on the lake that day, so it's not official.
Denver Colorado holds the record for the most snowfall. 11 feet of snow. It berried the planes at the airport up to the wings.
Where would you put that much snow?
whoever made that video is out of his mind and i love it
There are cities in the west that have received over 700 inches this year. Ski season is supposed to last till July.
Nothing better than hot tubs in winter. I live in Iowa and I'll wear sandals and shorts until the snow comes up over foot but and shorts for the rest of the winter until the wind comes then I'll not be able to move cause I'll have so many layers
90 inches of snow here in the Minneapolis/ St Paul MN area this winter
Hello from Maine
