raged from Pennsylvania to Maine. The storm was most
severe over New Jersey with high tides, uprooted trees,
and heavy snow inland.
In 1899 A storm which buried Ruby CO under 141 inches of snow
came to an end. Ruby was an old abandoned mining town
on the Elk Mountain Range in the Crested Butte area.
In 1977 Hartford CT hit 87 degrees to establish a record for
the month of March.
In 1987 A storm spread heavy snow across the Ohio Valley and
Lower Great Lakes Region. Cleveland OH received
16 inches of snow in 24 hours, their second highest
total of record. Winds gusting to 50 mph created eight
to twelve foot waves on Lake Huron. The storm ushered
unseasonably cold air into the south central and
southeastern U.S., with nearly one hundred record lows
reported in three days.
In 1988 A winter-like storm developed in the Central Rockies.
Snowfall totals in Utah ranged up to 15 inches at the
Brian Head Ski Resort, and winds in Arizona gusted to
59 mph at Show Low.
In 1989 Thunderstorms developing along and ahead of a slow
moving cold front produced large hail and damaging
winds at more than fifty locations across the
southeastern quarter of the nation, and spawned a
tornado which injured eleven persons at Northhampton
NC.
In 1990 Low pressure produced heavy snow in central Maine and
northern New Hampshire, with up to 8 inches reported
in Maine. A slow moving Pacific storm system produced
18 to 36 inches of snow in the southwestern mountains
of Colorado in three days. Heavier snowfall totals
included 31 inches at Wolf Creek Pass and 27 inches
at the Monarch Ski Area.
