The record for the most snow to fall in one day occurred on April 14, 1921 in Silver Lake, Colorado.
The storm began at 2:30 pm, and by the same time the next day, residents were buried under 6.5 feet (2 meters) of snow.
The storm did not stop after 24 hours, however. It raged for a total of 32.5 hours, and by the time it was over, 8 feet (2.5 meters) of snow, which is the record for one continuous snowfall.

And to think I thought our record breaking snowfall of 110 inches last year was amazing? Worst of all . . . I hate snow! I am a disgrace to my French Canadian heritage . . . .I like palm trees and and temps in the 90’s! LOL

Wow! Amazing amount of snow. And we complain here in Canada when we get a couple of feet.
