This weekend's snowstorm from the Ozark Mountains through the Ohio River Valley resulted in record-breaking snow accumulations for many areas.  20.4 inches of snow fell in Columbus, OH, which shattered the previous record of 15.3" set in February of 1910!  Over a foot of snow was commonplace across parts of the central MS River Valley into the Northeast, with IN, KY, OH, southernOntario and Quebec, Canada being the hardest hit.  3-5 foot drifts and blizzard conditions shut down roads and knocked out power to tens of thousands of people!  Up to 30 inches of snow is on the ground in northern OH, where lake effect and lake enhanced snow added to the storm totals.  Here is a list of the snowfall totals from the hardest hit areas in northern OH:
