#2  Medford, WI had 16.5 inches by about 11am this morning. It was still snowing. I haven't heard the total, but I'm guessing it will be just higher than "ridiculous".

Here's hoping Maryland doesn't get a repeat of February...

#1  parts of the area have had over 20"

storms with over 12" at a time are rare in Minneapolis but it does happen

Back in 1991, a 3 day storm beginning Oct 30 produced 28".

Average snowfall for a season is about 50" per the wikipedia site on Minneapolis climate
