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. Posted by VPost v1.7.081019 .
