In 1918 A tremendous blizzard completely immobilized the Midwest,
stopping mail service for two weeks. The vast storm then
moved through the Great Lakes Region and the Ohio Valley.
Winds reached 60 mph at Toledo OH, and the temperature
plunged from 28 above to 15 below zero during passage of
the cold front.
In 1972 Downslope winds hit the eastern slopes of the Rockies in
northern Colorado and southeastern Wyoming. Boulder CO
reported wind gusts to 143 mph and twenty-five million
dollars property damage.
In 1987 A storm in the northeastern U.S. buried the mountains of
central Vermont with up to 26 inches of snow, and snowfall
totals in Maine ranged up to 27 inches at Telos Lake.
Winds gusted to 45 mph at Newark NJ and Albany NY.
In 1988 High winds with snow produced a 50 car pile-up along
Interstate 15 in Utah. Winds gusted to 115 mph at
Rendezvous Peak, Wyoming.
In 1989 A cold front which the previous day produced 21 inches of
snow at Stampede Pass WA and wind gusts to 75 mph at
Mammoth Lakes CA, spread snow across Colorado. Totals in
Colorado ranged up to 17 inches at Steamboat Springs.
In 1990 Strong northwesterly winds associated with a deep low
pressure system crossing the Upper Great Lakes Region
ushered cold air into the central U.S. Winds gusted to
72 mph at Fort Dodge IA, and wind gusts reached 75 mph
at Yankton SD. Snow and high winds created blizzard
conditions in northwestern Minnesota. Squalls produced
heavy snow in parts of Upper Michigan and northern Lower
Michigan, with 16 inches reported at Wakefield.
