       In 1961 The third great snowstorm of the winter season struck the   
               northeastern U.S.  Cortland NY received 40 inches of snow.   
       In 1972 Attendees of the 29th annual Eastern Snow Conference in   
               Oswego were snowed in until February 6.   
       In 1987 Gales lashed the northern Pacific coast and the coast of   
               northern New England.  A storm in the central U.S.   
               produced five inches of snow at Rapid City SD.   
       In 1988 A winter storm produced heavy snow from the Upper Ohio   
               Valley to New England, with up to 12 inches reported in   
               Vermont and New Hampshire.  Strong northerly winds in the   
               Upper Midwest produced wind chill readings as cold as 60   
               degrees below zero.    
       In 1989 Two dozen cities in the south central and northwestern   
               U.S. reported new record low temperatures for the date.   
               The low of 14 below zero at Boise ID is a February   
               record.  A winter storm continued in the southwestern   
               U.S.  Alta UT reported 49 inches of snow in four days,   
               Wolf Creek CO reported 66 inches in six days, including   
               28 inches in 24 hours, and up to 84 inches buried the ski   
               resorts of northern New Mexico in three days.   
       In 1990 A winter storm produced heavy snow in the northeastern   
               U.S.  Snowfall totals in Maine ranged up to 13 inches at   
               Gorham, with 11 inches reported at Portland.  Totals in   
               New Hampshire ranged up to 14 inches at Franconia, with   
               13 inches reported at Portsmouth.  A mixture of snow,   
               sleet and freezing rain caused numerous traffic accidents   
               in eastern New York State resulting in three deaths and   
               fourteen injuries.  Subzero cold also gripped parts of   
               the northeastern U.S.  Caribou ME and Houlton ME reported   
               morning lows of 15 degrees below zero.   
       In 2004 A storm system brought a wintry mix to Arkansas. Snow,   
               then freezing rain fell across the north...rain and   
               sleet in central Arkansas...with heavy rain and   
               thunderstorms in south Arkansas. 4 to 6 inches of snow   
               fell in some of areas of north Arkansas, before changing   
               to an icy glaze of freezing rain...with up to 2 inches   
               of ice in some areas...resulting in numerous downed   
               trees and power lines. Some of the storms in central   
               Arkansas also produced sleet...with 2-4 inches of rain   
               noted across southern Arkansas.
